Judge Boyd finds violation true, sentences Jacqueline Nicole Wallace to 10 years and orders $2,000 restitution
Summary
Judge Stephanie Boyd revoked Jacqueline Nicole Wallace’s deferred adjudication after the court found a violation of a supervision condition true and sentenced Wallace to 10 years in prison, ordered $2,000 restitution and no contact with specified complainants.
Judge Stephanie Boyd revoked a deferred adjudication and sentenced Jacqueline Nicole Wallace to 10 years in prison after finding a violation of supervision condition number 40 true.
The court heard the State’s motion to enter an adjudication of guilt, during which the State alleged Wallace failed to comply with a directive of her supervising agency. Wallace pleaded “true” to the allegation. After receiving brief allocution, the court announced its ruling and sentence. “The court is finding violation of condition number 40 true. The court is gonna sentence you to 10 years in the prison,” Judge Boyd said.
The court also ordered restitution of $2,000 payable to Margie Claudio and entered an affirmative deadly-weapon finding. The judge ordered no contact between Wallace and the complainants named in the motion. The court advised Wallace she has limited appeal rights related to the motion and reminded her that, as a felony conviction, she is prohibited from owning or possessing weapons or ammunition.
The State presented the motion to adjudicate and alleged the violation occurred in October 2023; defense counsel did not contest the court’s factual finding after Wallace pleaded true. Probation indicated $2,000 in restitution remained unpaid.
The judge completed the court’s statutorily required admonitions and explained the limited scope for any appeal tied to the violation finding.
Wallace was excused following the court’s formal pronouncements and the required documentation of her rights.
