P. v. Tyler CA2/6
Tomiko S. Tyler appeals an order revoking and modifying parole terms to include an additional 180 days custody in county jail and enrollment in substance abuse classes. (Pen. Code, § 1237, subd. (b); see People v. Vickers (1972) 8 Cal.3d 451, 453, fn. 2 [appealable as a postjudgment order affecting a defendant’s substantial rights].)
On August 29, 2016, Tyler charged his GPS device as instructed. The next day, his parole agent received three notifications over several hours showing that the battery was running out, in violation of the condition that the device be charged twice a day. Although instructed to immediately contact his parole agent when the device began to vibrate due to low battery power, Tyler did not do so.
