Effect of a free or conditional pardon to a convict.
Proviso.
|
33. Where the royal mercy shall be extended to any offender convicted of any felony punishable with death or otherwise, and either a free pardon or a conditional pardon shall by warrant in due form be granted to such offender, the discharge of such offender out of custody in the case of a free pardon, and the performance of the condition in the case of a conditional pardon, shall have the effect of a pardon under the great seal for such offender as to the felony for which such pardon shall be so granted: Provided always, that no free pardon, nor any such discharge in consequence thereof, nor any conditional pardon, nor the performance of the condition thereof, in any of the cases aforesaid, shall prevent or mitigate the punishment to which the offender might otherwise be lawfully sentenced on a subsequent conviction for any felony committed after the granting of any such pardon.
