Description
In April, 1971 appellant was convicted of second degree burglary, a charge to which he had pled guilty. His sentence was suspended for five years, with probation imposed. In June, 1975 appellant pled guilty to a charge of possession of marijuana. Five years probation was imposed for this offense as well. In February, 1976, both probations were revoked. Revocation stemmed from appellants failure to remain at a prescribed drug rehabilitation program, and from his failure to notify the probation officer of his whereabouts. The trial court sentenced appellant to four to five years for the burglary charge, and from one to ten years for the possession charge. The sentences were to be served consecutively. Appeal was taken from the probation revocation and imposition of those sentences, with two issues addressed to this Court: (1) Did the sentences stem, unlawfully, from appellants violation of probation rather than from punishment for the original charges? And (2) Did the sentences imposed exceed the statutory maximum? We take jurisdiction pursuant to 17A A.R.S. Sup.Ct. Rules, rule 47(e). The orders revoking probation and the sentences imposed are affirmed as modified herein.
