Mootness; People v Rutherford

Holding that the prosecution’s issue was moot, the court dismissed its appeal. Defendant pled guilty to domestic violence, third offense, and resisting or obstructing a police officer. The trial court sentenced him to 2 years’ probation and 300 days in jail for each conviction. The prosecution appealed his sentences by leave granted. During the pendency of the appeal, as both parties agreed at oral argument, defendant’s probation was revoked and he served his subsequent sentences. As such, the court declined to review the appeal.
