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.
