West on probation after plea on theft

By Roger Estlack, Clarendon Enterprise

A local man is on probation following the acceptance of a plea agreement before the 100th Judicial District Court last week in Panhandle.

Quentin West pled guilty to a state jail felony and was placed on probation for a period of three years for the felony offense of theft, over $1,500.  West pleaded guilty to a complaint and information filed by the State for the state jail felony offense of theft.

Pursuant to the plea agreement, West is required to pay a $1,000 fine to Donley County, as well as restitution in the amount of $6,332.41. 

If West violates probation, he could face up to two years in the State Jail Division of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice.
