State v. Corona

¶1 Jose Corona pleaded guilty to two counts of delivery of methamphetamine, in violation of RCW 69.50.401(1) and (2)(b). At sentencing, the trial court imposed a $3,000 drug clean-up fine. Corona appeals, arguing that the trial court abused its discretion because the trial court erroneously believed that the $3,000 fine was mandatory. The State agrees with Corona and concedes that he is entitled to a new sentencing hearing on remand. We accept the State’s concession and remand for resentencing.
