State v. Day

The district court erred by imposing a restriction upon Defendant’s release from incarceration while committing him to the Department of Corrections (DOC).Defendant pleaded guilty to attempted prostitution. The district court committed Defendant to the DOC and ordered that he could not be released from incarceration until he had completed sexual offender treatment. The Supreme Court reversed and remanded for resentencing, holding that, under statute, a sentence cannot include both a placement to the DOC while also imposing incarceration by way of a restriction on release until the defendant completes sex offender treatment.
