Hello,
A deal was taken to sentence the offender to probation with a 365 day lid for a felony/misdemeanor wobblier. The offender was on released onto probation for five years. Two years later, the offender violated the terms of probation by consuming alcohol. A different judge then sentenced the offender for violating his probation, and then that judge sentenced the offender to prison for six years, terminating the probation.
How is this legal for a second judge to over rule the primary judgement of the case?
