P. v. Acuna
Defendant Roberto Lares Acuna appeals from a judgment of conviction entered after he pleaded no contest to one count of lewd and lascivious conduct with a child under the age of 14 (Pen. Code, 288, subd. (a)).[1] The trial court sentenced defendant to 8 years in state prison, suspended execution of sentence, and imposed probation for five years with conditions that he serve one year in county jail. Defendant was also required to pay various fines, fees, and penalty assessments. Court conclude that the imposition of certain fines and penalty assessments violated state and federal constitutional prohibitions against ex post facto laws, and that the payment of probation costs could not be ordered as a condition of probation. Accordingly, Court reverse.
