P. v. Mejia CA4/2
Defendant and appellant Elizabeth Christine Mejia pled no contest to filing a false or forged document. (Pen. Code, § 115, subd. (a).) A trial court placed her on probation for three years. The Riverside County District Attorney (the district attorney) subsequently filed a combined felony complaint and petition to revoke probation, alleging five counts, including another violation of section 115. The district attorney opted to proceed solely on the violation of probation, rather than a second case. The court held a hearing and found defendant in violation of her probation. It terminated probation and sentenced her to two years in state prison. The court then dismissed the case, pursuant to the district attorney’s motion.
