Washington v. Hubbard (Majority and Concurrence)
Annotate this CaseIn 2004, Waylon Hubbard pled guilty to second degree possession of stolen property. He was sentenced to a short term of confinement and 120 hours of community service. He was also ordered to pay legal financial obligations. By 2011, Hubbard had fulfilled his community service, and in 2013, he paid off his financial obligations. In 2016, Hubbard petitioned for a certificate and order of discharge (COD), with the effective date of February 25, 2013, the date he satisfied all the terms of his sentence. The State objected, arguing the court did not have the authority to enter an effective date that predated the date on which the court received notice that Hubbard completed his sentence. The Washington Supreme Court held the effective date of a certificate of discharge must be the state the offender completed all the terms of the sentence.
