State v. Humpal
Annotate this CaseThe Supreme Court affirmed the sentence imposed upon Defendant to a five-year penitentiary term while Defendant was serving a probationary sentence imposed in a different criminal file. On appeal, Defendant argued that the sentencing court imposed an illegal sentence when it placed him under the dual supervision of the judicial and executive branches. The Supreme Court held (1) the sentencing court erred when it placed Defendant under simultaneous supervision of two branches of government; but (2) because Defendant was currently only under the supervision of the executive branch, the sentence was constitutional.
