STATE OF WASHINGTON, ) No. 82346-9-I ) Respondent, ) DIVISION ONE ) v. ) ) GREENFIELD, CHRISTIAN JAMES, ) UNPUBLISHED OPINION DOB: 10/21/1972, ) ) Appellant. )
BOWMAN, J. — On February 4, 2021, the trial court sentenced Christian
James Greenfield for possession of a stolen vehicle and theft of a motor vehicle
under Snohomish County cause number 18-1-00875-31. At the same time, the
court sentenced Greenfield for possession of a stolen vehicle and possession of
a controlled substance under Snohomish County cause number 18-1-00874-31.
Greenfield separately appealed both cause numbers. In each appeal, Greenfield
argues we should remand his case for resentencing because the court failed to
follow the procedural requirements of the parent offender sentencing alternative
(POSA) statute, RCW 9.94A.655, in determining whether a POSA was an
appropriate sentence for him and abused its discretion in denying the POSA. He
also argues the court erred by imposing discretionary legal financial obligations
(LFOs), interest on nonrestitution LFOs, and a community custody condition
requiring that he “[s]tay out of drug areas.”

On May 2, 2022, another panel of this court issued a published opinion
vacating Greenfield’s conviction for possession of a controlled substance and
remanding the possession of a stolen vehicle conviction under Snohomish
County cause number 18-1-00874-31 for the trial court to “consider Greenfield’s
request for a POSA within the framework” of the statute. State v. Greenfield, No.

published opinion, vacate the judgment and sentence for the possession of a
stolen vehicle and theft of a motor vehicle convictions under Snohomish County
cause number 18-1-00875-31, and remand for the court likewise to consider
Greenfield’s request for a POSA.1

challenges to the LFOs and community custody condition.
