Description
The defendant pled guilty to the charge of armed robbery. Sentence was suspended and the defendant placed on probation for five years. One of the conditions of probation was that Huante serve six months in the Maricopa County Jail. While serving that time, he escaped. A petition to revoke probation was filed, a bench warrant issued and the defendant was arrested March 6, 1974. Rule 27.7(a), Arizona Rules of Criminal Procedure, states that a hearing to determine whether probation should be revoked shall be held before the sentencing court no less than 7 and no more than 20 days after . . . the probationer's initial appearance after arrest. The initial appearance was held March 8, 1974. This appeal raises the question of whether the revocation of the defendant's probation was valid because a preliminary hearing was held after 20 days had elapsed from the time of the initial appearance.
