STATE of Minnesota, Respondent,
v.
Michael Eugene CAMERON, Appellant.
No. C7-99-1529.
Court of Appeals of Minnesota.
December 28, 1999.
*848 Mike Hatch, Attorney General, St. Paul, and Susan Gaertner, Ramsey County Attorney, Darrell C. Hill, Assistant County Attorney, St. Paul, for respondent.
Gary R. Bryant-Wolf, Minneapolis, for appellant.
Considered and decided by DAVIES, Presiding Judge, FOLEY,[*] Judge, and MULALLY,[**] Judge.

OPINION
DAVIES, Judge.
Appellant alleges that the district court erred by failing to apply his presentence jail credit to each of his consecutive sentences. We affirm.

FACTS
Appellant Michael Eugene Cameron pleaded guilty to two counts of criminal vehicular injury causing great bodily harm and one count of criminal vehicular injury causing substantial bodily harm. The district court sentenced appellant to serve 12 months on count I, 12 months on count II to run concurrently with the count I sentence, and 12 months on count III to run consecutive to the other sentences, for a total incarceration period of 24 months. The district court then credited appellant with 106 days of jail credit against the 24-month total. Appellant asked the district court to apply his jail credit to each of the consecutive 12-month sentences, thereby giving him 212, not 106, days' credit against the aggregate time he was to serve. The district court denied appellant's motion.

ISSUE
Did the district court err by failing to apply appellant's jail credit against each of his consecutive sentences?

ANALYSIS
"The granting of jail credit is not discretionary with the trial court." State v. Parr, 414 N.W.2d 776, 778 (Minn.App. 1987), review denied (Minn. Jan. 15, 1988). Under Minn. R.Crim. P. 27.03, subd. 4(B), jail credit is to be automatically deducted from a sentence. According to State v. Patricelli, 357 N.W.2d 89, 94 (Minn.1984), jail credit applies to each sentence of multiple concurrent terms. In situations of consecutive sentences, the jail credit should be applied to only the first sentence, however, because to do otherwise would constitute "double credit." See Minn. Sent. Guidelines III.C.2 (double jail credit shall not be given to consecutive sentences); Effinger v. State, 380 N.W.2d 483, 489 (Minn.1986) (no double jail credit for consecutive sentence).
Appellant argues, however, that his jail credit must be applied to each of his consecutive *849 sentences, citing State v. Brom, 463 N.W.2d 758, 765-66 (Minn.1990). Appellant misreads the holding in Brom. In Brom, the trial court had not granted any jail credit for time served before sentencing. Id. On appeal, the supreme court applied the credit "against each of his life sentences for all of the time he was detained." Id. at 766. Consequently, the supreme court in Brom applied the jail credit once against Brom's three consecutive life sentences and once against the concurrent life term. In the Brom opinion, the supreme court did not suggest it was changing existing jail credit law and did not mention any authority contrary to Effinger or Patricelli, nor did the court reject those precedents. See Brom, 463 N.W.2d at 765-66. Thus, a claim that Effinger and Patricelli were directly or implicitly overruled is unfounded. It seems, instead, that the supreme court simply treated all the life sentences as if they were, in practical effect, concurrent.
As this court has concluded, subsequent to Brom, a defendant is entitled to jail credit only once against aggregated consecutive sentences. State v. Elting, 480 N.W.2d 152, 154-55 (Minn.App.1992), review denied (Minn. Mar. 26, 1992). Appellant properly received a single jail credit for the time he served before sentencing.

DECISION
We hold that the district court correctly applied jail credit against only the first of appellant's consecutive sentences.
Affirmed.
