One Plea Form Per Case; Victim-Objection Pleas Are Specially Set — Division CR-H
Summary
Division CR-H (Judge Branham per roster): each resolving case gets its own plea form (no consolidation), pleas over a victim's objection are specially set, special probation conditions go in the right section with deadlines, and the State provides the scoresheet before sentencing — the guidelines cite Navarro: sentencing without one is fundamental error.
