Montana Supreme Court

State v. Sanchez

March 24, 20262026 MT 61

Summary

The Montana Supreme Court held that the district court exceeded its revocation authority by treating the remaining probationary portion of Sanchez’s custodial sentence as suspended time and imposing it as a DOC commitment. The Court reversed the January 3, 2024 disposition and remanded for correction to revoke only the suspended time. It also noted that the parties waived any challenge to the street‑time credit calculation.
