P. v. Gibson
Pursuant to a plea agreement, defendant pled guilty to one count of child endangerment (Pen. Code, 273a, subd. (a)).[2] Defendant was thereafter immediately sentenced to four years of formal probation on various terms and conditions. On appeal, defendant contends (1) the magistrate judge improperly denied her suppression motion, and (2) the trial court erred in ordering her to reimburse the county $96 for services of the public defender. Court reject defendants first claim of error but agree that the court erred in ordering defendant to pay court-appointed attorney fees without notice, opportunity to be heard, or determination of her ability to pay. We will remand the matter for further proceedings in accordance with this opinion.
