Does a judge have jurisdiction to resentence a criminal defendant after execution of the sentence has commenced?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from People v. Helser, C079151 (Cal. App. 2016):

argument is consistent with the general common law rule that "a trial court is deprived of jurisdiction to resentence a criminal defendant once execution of the sentence has commenced. [Citations.] Where the trial court relinquishes custody of a defendant, it also loses jurisdiction over that defendant." (People v. Karaman (1992) 4 Cal.4th 335, 344.)
