Description
Joseph Hester pled no contest to driving while intoxicated, AS 28.35.030. Magistrate Anna M. Moran sentenced Hester to sixty days with forty days suspended and imposed a fine of $1,000 with $500 suspended. The court also revoked Hesters license for one year and placed Hester on probation for two years. As one of the conditions of probation, the court ordered that Hester "comply with the recommendations of alcohol screening." In an "Order of Alcohol and Assignment" issued at the time of sentencing, the court more specifically directed that Hester "enroll in and satisfactorily complete a program to be designated by the Kodiak Alcohol Safety Action Program" (Kodiak ASAP). The Kodiak Council on Alcoholism (KCA), the overseer of the Kodiak ASAP, recommended that Hester serve thirty days in the Hope House residential alcohol treatment center. Hester moved to modify his sentence on the ground that the KCAs recommendation constituted an illegal sentence. The court denied Hesters motion and Hester appeals from this ruling. We reverse.
