Judge rules work release can't be added after appeal
A Texas court ruled that a trial judge cannot establish a work release program after a conviction is upheld. In a 3-2 decision, the majority held that work release must be set at sentencing, while a judge dissented, arguing it aligns with legislative intent and aids rehabilitation. The case involving Donnie Botello centered on a one year jail term plus a $2000 fine for misdemeanor gambling paraphernalia.
