James v. Hon. Hruby-Mills 2019 UT App 30 (Feb. 22, 2019)

In denying the petitioner’s petition for an extraordinary writ, the Court of Appeals held, as a matter of first impression, that Utah R. Crim. P. 2, regarding calculation of time, applies to the calculation of a term of probation.  Applying that rule, the day of entry of the probation order did not count, and the prosecution’s probation violation report, filed exactly one year later, was timely.
