The goals (to make sentences cumulative, and to make time served before an appeal count) are non-trivial (and the latter is still iffy if an appeal tries to reduce a timer below zero, though the panel might overrule to original-minus-time-served without prejudice). Simpler alternative: in R1504, replace relevant text with When this sentence goes into effect, the ninny becomes inactive. While this sentence is in effect, and has been continuously in effect for less than the specified number of days, the ninny SHALL NOT become inactive.
