District Court for Douglas County, Hon. James T. Gleason
Attorneys: Ann O. Peterson (Douglas County Public Defender’s Office, for Appellant) and Siobhan E. Duffy (Office of the Attorney General, for Appellee)
Criminal: Shoplifting; Probation violation; Sentencing
Proceedings below: The district court sentenced Appellant on plea-based convictions in three separate dockets.
Issues on Appeal: Whether the district court imposed an excessive sentence; and whether the district court erred when it sentenced Appellant to determinate sentences for Class IV felonies in two dockets when in a third docket the court sentenced Starks for a Class IIA felony and ordered the sentence for the Class IIA felony to be served consecutive to a determinate sentence for a Class IV felony in the same case and consecutive to the sentences for the Class IV felonies in the two other dockets.
