   REVOCATION - DRUG COURT

 

 

Leonard, Jeffery Earl v. State, COCA Case No. RE-2001-911 (June 13, 2002)
(Appellant cannot be terminated from a program it is not even certain he had begun. State's application to terminate Appellant's Drug Court participation reversed with instructions to dismiss.)

Ward, Markeese Kreashawmn v. State, COCA Case No. C-2010-77 (May 4, 2011)
(Revocation - Drug Court; Sentence, Excessive) After plea of guilty, defendant was ordered to Delayed Sentencing Program for Young Adults but did not successfully complete the program. One year later, trial court gave defendant a second chance to try RID, and sanctioned to five months in County Jail. COCA holds that trial court’s effort to give a "second chance" was, in fact, the time at which sentence was imposed, which could not later be increased.
