'''Article 40. Assigning punishment when several crimes have been committed.'''

If a person is found guilty of having committed two or more crimes specified in various articles of the Special Part of the present Code for none of which he had been convicted, the court, after having assigned punishment for each crime individually, makes its final determination of punishment on the basis of their totality by means of absorbing the less severe sentence by the more severe one, or by means of the full or partial compounding of the sentences within the limits established by the articles providing for a more severe penalty.

The extra penalties enumerated in those articles of the Special Part of the present Code which prescribe the liability for those crimes of whose commission the person was found guilty, may be added to the basic sentence.

Punishment is assigned in accordance with the same rules if, after sentence has been passed, it is established that the convicted person is guilty of another crime committed prior to the passing of sentence in the first case.

In this case, the sentence fully or partially served under the first judgment is counted as a part of the period of the sentence.
