Prop 47-Petition For Resentencing With Waiver {P47}

P47 - PETITION-RESENTENCING-WAIVER. This form is used in the Superior Court of California, County of Nevada, by individuals seeking relief under California Penal Code § 1170.18, which was established by Proposition 47. The form allows a petitioner—typically a defendant previously convicted of a felony offense that has since been reclassified as a misdemeanor—to request that the court either resentence them if they are currently serving their sentence, or reduce their felony conviction to a misdemeanor if the sentence has already been completed. The petitioner must provide details about their conviction, including the specific code sections, sentencing information, and any relevant personal history, such as prior offenses. The form also includes a declaration that the petitioner does not pose an unreasonable risk to public safety and does not have disqualifying prior convictions. The petitioner may choose to waive the requirement that the original sentencing judge hear the petition. Optional Form. www.FormsWorkflow.com
