Facts

  • The Defendant was on probation and appealed the district court's order revoking his probation.

The Defendant argued that there was insufficient evidence for revocation, suggesting the possibility of his presence at the probation office without signing the sign-in sheet and being seen by other officers.

Procedural History

  • [Not applicable or not found]

Parties' Submissions

  • Defendant-Appellant: Argued that there was insufficient evidence to revoke his probation, suggesting that he might have shown up at the probation office as ordered without signing in and that he could have been seen by other officers.
  • Plaintiff-Appellee: Presented testimony from the Defendant's probation officer asserting that the Defendant did not show up as ordered.

Legal Issues

  • Whether there was sufficient evidence to support the revocation of the Defendant's probation.
  • Whether it was error for the district court to allow the Defendant’s probation officer to testify to knowledge or statements of other compliance officers.
  • Whether the Defendant's revocation was the result of cumulative error.

Disposition

  • The revocation of the Defendant's probation was affirmed.

Reasons

  • The panel, consisting of Judges Megan P. Duffy, Jennifer L. Attrep, and Jacqueline R. Medina, unanimously affirmed the revocation of the Defendant's probation. The Court found that the testimony from the Defendant's probation officer provided sufficient evidence to support the revocation (para 2). The Court emphasized that it does not reweigh evidence on appeal and that it is the role of the jury to resolve conflicts and determine the weight and credibility of testimony (para 2). The Defendant's arguments regarding the probation officer's testimony and the claim of cumulative error were dismissed for failing to present new facts, law, or arguments that could persuade the Court to alter its proposed disposition (para 3).
