State Court Overturns Parole-Revocation Fine
LOS ANGELES - Imposing a parole-revocation fine enacted two years after a defendant committed the underlying offenses is unconstitutional, an appellate court ruled Tuesday.
The retroactive fine improperly increases punishment for a crime, the 2nd District Court of Appeal held. People v. Callejas, 2000 Daily Journal D.A.R. 13401 (Cal. App. 2nd. Dist. Dec. 19, 2000).
