Summary

In Vasquez v. State, Docket No. 79409-COA (Order Vacating Judgment and Remanding, August 12, 2020) (Tao, J., concurring), I explained at length that the Nevada Division of Parole and Probation appears to currently be operating in violation of Nevada law in the way in which it makes sentencing recommendations in PSIs, and I recommended that, until P&P complies with its statutory obligations, district court judges should ignore its recommendations when imposing sentence.
