P. v. Gaines CA2/3
In March 2017, defendant Dillon Mitchel Gaines pled no contest to a violation of Penal Code section 261.5, subdivision (c). The trial court suspended the imposition of sentence and placed defendant on probation for five years—the maximum term of probation authorized under former section 1203.1, subdivision (a). The court revoked and reinstated probation several times. In November 2019, the court summarily revoked defendant’s probation for the final time and at the probation violation hearing conducted in July 2021, the court terminated probation and imposed a sentence of 16 months to be served in county jail.
Defendant argues the court lacked jurisdiction to terminate probation and impose a sentence in July 2021.
