State v. Molina
Annotate this Case
The Supreme Court affirmed the judgment of the superior court adjudicating Defendant a probation violator, affirmed the order denying Defendant's motions to dismiss and to reconsider, and affirmed the hearing justice's denial of Defendant's motion to recuse, holding that Defendant's arguments on appeal failed.
Specifically, the Supreme Court held (1) given the nature and extend of Defendant's conduct in contributing to the delay in this case, the hearing justice did not err in denying Defendant's motion to dismiss and his motion to reconsider the finding of his probation violation based on the delay between his arrest and the violation hearing; (2) there was sufficient evidence to find that Defendant violated his probation; and (3) the hearing justice acted well within his discretion in sentencing Defendant to six years of his remaining suspended sentence.
