Does the Attorney General have authority or authority to order a written memorialization or orally pronounce judgment as required by law?
California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from People v. Vidano, C076050 (Cal. App. 2016):
We are not persuaded. The Attorney General cites no authority authorizing a trial court to orally pronounce judgment as required by law (or "a written memorialization" of that pronouncement) merely by directing the probation department to prepare an order, then purporting to "execute" that order, without ever stating reasons for its sentencing choices. A legal proposition asserted without authority is forfeited. (People v. Stanley (1995) 10 Cal.4th 764, 793.)
