Grant, J.,
dissenting in part.
I dissent only from the imposition of a 30-day jail term after the court determined that defendant had violated the terms of his probation. As part of that probation, he had served 2 days in jail before his 30-day jail sentence. The penalty under Neb. Rev. Stat. § 28-106 (Cum. Supp. 1984) for the second conviction of a Class W misdemeanor is 30 days in jail — not 32 days in jail. I agree that a penal statute should be strictly construed, and I would limit defendant’s sentence herein to an additional 28 days.
