People v. Klockman
Opinion
Opinion
Raye, J.
Defendant pleaded guilty to two counts of having committed a lewd act upon a child under the age of fourteen. (Pen. Code, § 288, subd. (a); further references to sections of an undesignated code are to the Penal Code.) The Placer County Superior Court imposed six-year terms on each count with the terms to run concurrently. The court also imposed a consecutive eight-month term (one-third the midterm) for an unlawful sexual intercourse with a minor conviction (§ 261.5) for which defendant was on probation in El Dorado County. The court ordered defendant to pay $500 in attorney fees.
On appeal, defendant contends: (1) the Placer County court had no jurisdiction to revoke probation and impose a sentence on a charge pending in El Dorado County; and (2) the order to pay attorney fees was unauthorized because there was no notice, hearing, nor a determination of actual costs or of an ability to pay the fees.
