P. v. Holliday
On February 15, 2011, Reece Peter Holliday was convicted of one count of burglary of an inhabited dwelling in which a person was present. (Pen. Code,[1] §§ 459, 460, 667.5, subd. (c)(21). On April 19, 2011, Holliday was sentenced to five years' formal probation. Holliday was released on probation on April 20, 2011, and arrested for potential probation violation on April 27, 2011.
On August 8, 2011, following an evidentiary hearing, Holliday was found to have violated his probation. On August 31, 2011, Holliday was sentenced to the low term of two years.
On appeal, Holliday first claims that he did not violate his probation. Second, Holliday claims that he did not receive proper notification of the alleged claims of violation in accordance with due process. As we explain, we conclude that the trial court properly held that Holliday violated his probation conditions and that he received proper notification of the allegations. The judgment is affirmed.
