P. v. Nance CA3
In January 2012, defendant used a knife and caused traumatic injury to the father of her child. She pled no contest to assault with a deadly weapon. The trial court suspended execution of sentence and placed defendant on three years’ formal probation. After multiple probation violations, proceedings were suspended because of doubts about defendant’s competence to stand trial. In October 2016, she was found incompetent to stand trial. In April 2017, she was found to have regained her competence. Defendant then admitted violating probation.
The trial court denied reinstatement of probation and sentenced her to two years in state prison for her assault with a deadly weapon conviction. The trial court deemed the sentence served based on presentence custody credits.
