Deportation Cases
(a) When the parties desire that a reentry after deportation case be expedited for a plea and
sentencing hearing, a completed Notice for Expedited Plea and Sentencing Hearing (the
“Notice”) shall be filed with either a final executed Plea Agreement or an executed
Acknowledgement and Waiver of Rights form. The form of the Notice shall substantially
conform to Criminal Form 4.
(b) The plea and sentencing hearing shall be scheduled within forty-five (45) days after the
filing of the Notice and either the Plea Agreement or Acknowledgement and Waiver of
Rights, with the hearing scheduled as close as possible to the end of the forty-five (45) day
period. The probation office shall prepare an abbreviated presentence investigation report
without the need for any further order of the court. The abbreviated presentence investigation
report need not include information ordinarily set forth in Section C of a full presentence
investigation report and will not contain a sentencing recommendation.
(c) The probation office shall disclose an abbreviated presentence investigation report to the
parties by no later than five (5) days before the scheduled plea and sentencing hearing.
(d) The provisions of LCrR 32.1 requiring the filing of proposed Sentencing Options and
Supervision Conditions do not apply to cases subject to this expedited plea and sentencing
procedure.
(e) The deadlines set forth herein for cases subject to this expedited plea and sentencing
hearing procedure supersede the deadlines set forth in LCrR 32.1. All other provisions of
LCrR 32.1, not inconsistent with this rule remain in effect.
