At a jury trial in April, Steven Dixon was found guilty of a category B felony charge driving under the influence with a prior felony conviction. In a recent court hearing, the court re-sentenced Dixon for a misdemeanor driving under the influence charge because the Deputy District Attorney failed to present evidence of prior convictions at sentencing. Sixth Judicial District Court Judge Michael Montero explained that the Nevada Revised Statutes requires that the prosecutor present evidence of prior felony convictions at the sentencing hearing, which did not happen.
After being given multiple chances at completing probation on a 2018 felony burglary charge and not following the probation stipulations, 20-year-old Cullen Hume was sent to carry out an underlying prison sentence of 15-38 months. Hume was arrested on felony attempted burglary in January 2018 and pleaded no contest to the charge in June. At his original sentencing hearing, Hume asked Sixth Judicial District Court Judge Michael Montero to grant him probation but said that he did not want to complete the diversion program with drug court. By completing a diversion program, Hume would have had the opportunity to avoid having a felony conviction on his criminal record.
