Judge Stephanie Boyd announced, “Court is gonna send you to 3 years deferred adjudication. I'm sorry. 3 years deferred adjudication, regular reporting by Zoom or in person, regular random UAs, dollars 1,500 fine, time and money to run concurrent.” The judge also assigned additional conditions, including placement on the MC caseload, a referral to the Center for Healthcare Services, signing releases for mental-health records and an anger-management course.

Court discussion showed concern about the defendant's mental-health evaluation (the transcript references an “MC evaluation”), including notes that some information was outdated and that the defendant reported plans to continue medication and follow-up care after release. Probation recommended obtaining authorizations to contact treating providers and placing O'Banion on the MC caseload. The court ordered a TAP evaluation and a referral to felony drug court for assessment, and directed that, if the drug court or mental-health court accepted her, the court could consider procedural steps to facilitate placement there.

As conditions of probation the court imposed no-contact orders with named persons and specific addresses, prohibited employment as a home-health provider or work involving minors, required proof of employment or SSI within 30 days of release, and set field visits one time per month until further notice. The judge also ordered that community-service and any restitution-related conditions be followed and that the defendant not have unsupervised contact with minors.

Defense counsel Dwight Jones and probation representatives discussed the need for an authorization to obtain medical records and a transition plan for medication; the defendant told the court she has follow-up appointments and a pharmacy arranged on release. The court emphasized compliance with treatment and warned that interruptions in the defendant's participation could lead to revocation steps.

The judge recorded trial-court certification of appellate rights and again reiterated the ban on weapon ownership in any cause with an affirmative family-violence finding. The court also ordered a TAP evaluation to be completed while O'Banion was in custody, and instructed probation to return the defendant to court if evaluations recommend continued in-custody treatment rather than release.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","THURS., MAY 15, 2025/JUDGE STEPHANIE BOYD/187TH DISTRICT COURT/AFTERNOON DOCKET","oneSentenceSummary","Judge Stephanie Boyd placed Leslie O'Banion on three years' deferred adjudication with probation conditions including mental-health case management, random drug tests, anger-management requirements, and no contact with named individuals and addresses.","taxTitle","Judge Stephanie Boyd 187th District, District Court Judges, Judicial, Texas","taxId",66298,"location","Texas","headline","shortSummary",{"_33":76,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":77,"_41":78,"_43":79,"_45":80,"_47":81,"_49":82,"_51":83,"_53":84,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":85,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":86,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":56,"_74":56},6239960,"Judge sets $20,000 bond and GPS for man on deferred-adjudication revocation motion",127,2496000,2623000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3333058-c7258d83d84ace99369a2cefe1d004a0&start=2496&end=2623","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3333058-c7258d83d84ace99369a2cefe1d004a0/thumbnail_2496000.jpg","/articles/6239960/Texas/Judge-sets-20000-bond-and-GPS-for-man-on-deferred-adjudication-revocation-motion","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6239960-acfccdf2b9e0063fccbfa743c479d515/orig.mp4?Expires=1770513301&Signature=KS8PEc0YHH9gfpMeD5Z38Y6o5SrZlV0JWlfufrp3pKWv5a9wndet5j7DLT5U1em-ORNGpfvSOYrZKTBMQOGmh3ey8ceVl4eIImKNjY3tC7LB-kEaSxrY7VRsL6wo0o~Aw3hYmD0b8iCDIg24HrUaZ0xqZXnbGummTd9-CvymttfUb9VdFm6oVXdabtLZE1Ybb96y3~~3hirF8kDg8uEMprjERa6ZbFVf7ZQdRpSyy3ZaKyDQ6PrGO4oUM-yF~-7qK0pPQbPYqZUc6Rg4O9wb1xARQRer8AssqpK9MT46xr~S-s-PCbIOuPINYvoDOcJc9HZfTSBBWX3sAQUdSDZwPQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The 187th District Court set bond at $20,000 and ordered full GPS monitoring for a defendant facing a motion to revoke community supervision, after the court reviewed alleged probation violations that included missed drug testing and an attempt to buy a firearm.

Judge Stephanie Boyd explained the reasons for the bond-setting and said, “The court is gonna set your bond at $20,000. There's to be full GPS, and the court will ask that the fees be waived.” The order followed the state’s request for a bond of not less than $20,000 based on multiple alleged violations.

Prosecutors described several supervision failures during argument, including the defendant’s failure to complete an approved Batterers' Intervention Program (BIP), missed drug testing, unapproved treatment courses and an alleged attempt to purchase a firearm while an affirmative family-violence finding remained in place. Defense counsel asked the court to take judicial notice of the defendant’s prior bond amount and probation status; the court considered those factors in setting the amount.

The court scheduled a contested hearing to address the motion to enter adjudication of guilt and revoke community supervision. The judge set a return date for a contested hearing and ordered full GPS monitoring as a condition of bond. The transcript shows the court took action to correct the wording on the state’s motion and directed an oral amendment so the proper violation and motion language would be on file before a full hearing occurs.

Probation officers and prosecutors discussed the most recent incidents and supervision history on the record. The judge also instructed that the contested hearing be set 10 days out for a hearing on the motion and set the next calendar date for May 29 for the bond hearing and contested proceeding.

The court’s order reflects the interim bond condition and the requirement for GPS monitoring while the motion to revoke community supervision remains pending.","In a bond hearing on a motion to revoke community supervision, the court set bond at $20,000, ordered full GPS monitoring and waived fees for a defendant on deferred adjudication with alleged violations including missed testing and attempted firearm purchase.",{"_33":88,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":89,"_41":90,"_43":91,"_45":92,"_47":93,"_49":94,"_51":95,"_53":96,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":97,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":98,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":56,"_74":56},6239964,"Defendant Fernando Jimenez sentenced to six years after waiver and plea agreement; court finds family-violence allegation",617,1036000,1653000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3333058-c7258d83d84ace99369a2cefe1d004a0&start=1036&end=1653","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3333058-c7258d83d84ace99369a2cefe1d004a0/thumbnail_1036000.jpg","/articles/6239964/Texas/Defendant-Fernando-Jimenez-sentenced-to-six-years-after-waiver-and-plea-agreement-court-finds-family-violence-allegation","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6239964-3e2a26d25dad4f70f20b406da2480ea9/orig.mp4?Expires=1770513301&Signature=JKrLH-YvEjBnUPck8Vki5aVG56Erda7HOKOGFm1LjMXDySszNjZ6NAQoKClNFedygfnRtuxUB-AVPd23WOg3TafiKGAJpc841lyyAqLilRAofR9VJpYwPXBGYGPCSkN-Gmkq9jxFegFPKSPp1DBSioGVzPvAZpQGPwRHTuNXPCXL0YuY4N~4yr9ryruLMrydZjA5AVFwGZOCPgv8Tc9zp1bc4Pyrtz5DuNXfphPz5IhgKx6NakUeEXzu1tHD192mu7pxjdn3EMa6XddwHQCqF3UR8XEDmm2TmyoMm9bddrK6kkR1u3ae-0ilEK67iscAB3eb3US7mMJ11U810Dy2Ew__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Fernando Jimenez, who appeared in the 187th District Court, was sentenced to six years in prison after waiving a jury trial and entering plea agreements in two connected felony cases.

Judge Stephanie Boyd, presiding, told Jimenez the court would proceed on the plea bargains and said, “The court will sentence you to 6 years in the prison, give you credit for any time served.” The judge also ordered an affirmative finding of family violence and a no-contact directive with the complainant.

The court record shows Jimenez waived a repeat-offender enhancement and entered pleas that the judge described as knowingly and voluntarily made. The judge explained the possible punishment for the charged third-degree felonies, saying the range is “anywhere from 2 to 10 years in prison and up to a $10,000 fine.” Jimenez confirmed he understood and that he had reviewed discovery and plea paperwork with defense counsel Melissa Christian.

Under the plea terms read into the record, one cause includes a $1,500 fine; the judge ordered the sentences to run concurrently. The court also noted that, with an affirmative family-violence finding, Jimenez is prohibited from owning or possessing weapons or ammunition and from having unsupervised contact with minors in the related cause.

Melissa Christian, defense counsel, confirmed receipt and review of discovery and advised the court that pleas and stipulations were understood and supported by the defense. The state presented documentary evidence and attachments in support of the pleas; the judge said she reviewed the exhibits and found sufficient evidence to accept the pleas.

The judge advised Jimenez that because he waived appeal rights in the plea bargain, he did not have the court’s permission to appeal, and reiterated the collateral limits and consequences tied to the family-violence finding.

Court actions recorded in the hearing include entry of no-contest pleas, acceptance of stipulated testimony and documentary exhibits by the state, and sentencing to six years with concurrent cause numbers and the specified fine and no-contact orders. The judge provided Jimenez with copies of trial-court certification of appellate rights and admonishments before excusing him.

The docket entry references cause numbers discussed in court and the recorded plea paperwork; the transcript shows defense and the state acknowledged the evidentiary exhibits the court relied on.","In 187th District Court, Judge Stephanie Boyd accepted no-contest pleas from Fernando Jimenez, imposed concurrent six-year terms, fined $1,500 in one cause, and entered an affirmative family-violence finding with no-contact conditions.","actionData","errors"]
