$1,500 For Illegally Extending Term of Community Supervision

On May 8, 1992, Raymond Mullins was sentenced to one year of community
placement for a felony conviction and to one year of probation for a
misdemeanor conviction. These sentences were imposed concurrently.
On July 30, 1992, Mr. Mullins' probation was revoked and he was ordered to
serve the balance of his misdemeanor sentence. No action was taken on his
felony sentence of community supervision and it continued to run
throughout his misdemeanor incarceration.

Following his release from jail, Community Corrections Officer Mary
Bullard contacted Mr. Mullins and required him to report, submit to
urinalysis and other conditions of community supervision. Mr. Mullins
objected to these actions on the basis that his term of supervision had
expired while he was in jail. A hearing was held in the King County
Superior Court and the judge ruled that Mr. Mullins' term of supervision
expired on May 7, 1993.

Mr. Mullins filed a tort claim with the Division of Risk Management. The
claim was settled for $1500. Mr. Mullins was represented by Seattle
attorney Michael Danko. See: Matter of Mullins, Tort Claim No. 31008198
(Oct. 27, 1995).
