Commonwealth of Kentucky v. Lee Andrew Wright

Summary

The Court affirmed the Court of Appeals and held that Wright's five-year probation expired on November 10, 2010, before the Commonwealth moved to revoke it. The restitution provisions did not automatically extend probation; an extension beyond five years required a trial-court finding that additional time was necessary and a duly entered order before the existing probationary term expired. Because no warrant was pending and probation had not been revoked before expiration, the trial court lacked authority to revoke it afterward.
