Petitioner: Wesley Richard DePriest v. Respondent: the People of the State of Colorado.

Summary

The court held that DePriest's appeal from the revocation of his deferred judgment and sentence was not moot, even though he had later received a prison sentence and completed it. A favorable ruling could vacate his felony conviction, reinstate the deferred judgment and sentence, reverse resulting sentences, and eliminate direct and collateral consequences. The court vacated the dismissal and remanded for the court of appeals to address the appeal on the merits.
