State v. Pulst
Annotate this Case
The Supreme Court reversed the order of the district court revoking Defendant's suspended sentences, holding that the district court had no authority to revoke Defendant's sentence and impose on a new sentence on the basis that it did.
On appeal, Defendant argued that the district court erred in revoking the suspended portions of his sentences for failing to enroll or complete treatment prior to his release from prison. At issue was whether Defendant would be in immediate violation of his probation conditions upon release to the suspended portion of his sentence. The Supreme Court vacated the sentence imposed upon Defendant, holding that the district court lacked the authority to revoke Defendant's sentence and impose a new sentence on the basis that Defendant did not have sex offender treatment arranged prior to release to the suspended portion of his sentence because no such requirement was contained in his probation conditions.
