The following excerpt is from People v. Rowland, B246683 (Cal. App. 2014):
The court sentenced appellants to life without possibility of parole. The court also imposed a parole revocation fine on each appellant, which it stayed. (Pen. Code, 1202.56) When a court sentences a defendant to prison for life without the possibility of parole, the court should not impose a parole revocation fine. (People v. Jenkins (2006) 140 Cal.App.4th 805, 819.) Appellants ask that we strike their parole revocation fines, and the People join in that request. We shall do so.
