Granted Appeal Summary
Case
NOAH SALIM BURNHAM v. COMMONWEALTH OF VIRGINIA (Record Number 181096)
From
The Court of Appeals of Virginia.
Counsel
Miriam Airington-Fisher (Airington, Overholser & Rockecharlie PLLC) for appellant
Mackenzie K. Babichenko (Office of the Commonwealth’s Attorney) for appellee
Assignment of Error
The trial court erred in denying the defense motion to dismiss because the trial court lacked jurisdiction to find defendant guilty of a probation violation where Appellant had completed his term of probation and was no longer subject to terms of suspension. The Court of Appeals erred by denying the appeal and affirming the ruling of the trial court.
