P. v. Salgado
Defendant Edie Lily Salgado appeals from an order reinstating and extending her probation. She contends the trial court lacked jurisdiction to do so because her maximum probationary term had already expired. Alternatively, she argues her trial counsel was ineffective for failing to object to the extension as an act in excess of the court’s jurisdiction.
The People concede the trial court lacked jurisdiction to extend Salgado’s probation, and we agree the concession is appropriate.[1]
We will therefore reverse the trial court’s order reinstating probation and direct the trial court to discharge Salgado from probation.
