Summary
Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Page County, Justin R. Wyatt, Judge. AFFIRMED. Considered by Schumacher, P.J., and Buller and Langholz, JJ. Opinion by Langholz, J. (4 pages)
Jennifer Archer appeals the revocation of her deferred judgment and conviction for third-degree burglary, arguing that the district court violated her state and federal due-process rights by doing so without providing a hearing or a statement of the factual basis for the revocation. OPINION HOLDS: The district court held a revocation hearing—at the same time as the sentencing hearing for the convictions on the new charges that were the basis for revocation. And the written record of the hearing provides a sufficient statement of the basis for the revocation—especially since Archer did not contest that basis at the hearing.
