It should be -- it's all incarceration. Call your local court and ask though just to be sure.

Honestly it depends on the judge. Judges pick and choose who they are going to send away or let go. Legally(depending in what state you rin) they wil take it as time served. But sometimes they'll still see prison time.

If it is for the same charge and you were in the jail awaiting transfer to the prison, more than likely...yes, it will count.

Usually it will. On occasion though it is not used that way. However, 95% of the time it certainly is. Of course, if you spent time in jail on a DIFFERENT CHARGE (or at a different time), then No it will not be used that way.

It depends on the sentencing terminology, if sentenced with "credit time served" or even just "time served" then you will.

If the courts acknowledge it and it's part of the sentencing.

That is up to the court. It is not a given.
