Now, therefore, it is hereby
ORDERED:
(a) That the amendments as shown below are adopted.

DATED at Olympia, Washington this 9th Day of July, 2014.
1. My true name is: _____.
2. My age is: .
3. The last level of education I completed was .
4. I Have Been Informed and Fully Understand That:
(a) I have the right to representation by a lawyer and if I cannot afford to pay for a lawyer, one will be provided at no expense to me.
(b) I am charged with: _____.
The elements are: _____
_____.
5. I Understand I Have the Following Important Rights, and I Give Them Up by Pleading Guilty:
(a) The right to a speedy and public trial by an impartial jury in the county where the crime was allegedly committed;
(b) The right to remain silent before and during trial, and the right to refuse to testify against myself;
(c) The right at trial to hear and question the witnesses who testify against me;
(d) The right at trial to testify and to have witnesses testify for me. These witnesses can be made to appear at no expense to me;
(e) The right to be presumed innocent unless the State proves the charge beyond a reasonable doubt or I enter a plea of guilty;
(f) The right to appeal a finding of guilt after a trial.
6. In Considering the Consequences of my Guilty Plea, I Understand That:
(a) Each crime with which I am charged carries a maximum sentence, a fine, and a Standard Sentence Range as follows:
*The sentencing enhancement codes are: (RPh) Robbery of a pharmacy, (CSG) Criminal street gang involving minor, (AE) Endangerment while attempting to elude. The following enhancements will run consecutively to all other parts of my entire sentence, including other enhancements and other counts: (F) Firearm, (D) Other deadly weapon, (V) VUCSA in protected zone, (JP) Juvenile present, (VH) Veh. Hom, see RCW 46.61.520, (P16) Passenger(s) under age 16.
(b) The standard sentence range is based on the crime charged and my criminal history. Criminal history includes prior convictions and juvenile adjudications or convictions, whether in this state, in federal court, or elsewhere.
(c) The prosecuting attorney's statement of my criminal history is attached to this agreement. Unless I have attached a different statement, I agree that the prosecuting attorney's statement is correct and complete. If I have attached my own statement, I assert that it is correct and complete. If I am convicted of any additional crimes between now and the time I am sentenced, I am obligated to tell the sentencing judge about those convictions.
(d) If I committed the above crime(s) while under age 18 and am sentenced to more than 20 years confinement:
(i) As long as my conviction is not for aggravated first degree murder or certain sex crimes, and I have not committed any crimes after I turned 18 or committed a major violation in the 12 months before the petition is filed, I may petition the Indeterminate Sentence Review Board (Board) for early release after I have served 20 years.
(ii) If I am released early because my petition was granted or by other action of the Sentence Review Board, I may be subject to community custody under the supervision of the DOC for a period of time determined by the Board. I will be required to comply with any conditions imposed by the Board.
(e) If I am convicted of any new crimes before sentencing, or if any additional criminal history is discovered, both the standard sentence range and the prosecuting attorney's recommendation may increase. Even so, my plea of guilty to this charge is binding on me. I cannot change my mind if additional criminal history is discovered even though the standard sentencing range and the prosecuting attorney's recommendation increase or a mandatory sentence of life imprisonment without the possibility of parole is required by law.
(f) In addition to sentencing me to confinement, the judge will order me to pay $500.00 as a victim's compensation fund assessment and any mandatory fines or penalties that apply to my case. If this crime resulted in injury to any person or damage to or loss of property, the judge will order me to make restitution, unless extraordinary circumstances exist which make restitution inappropriate. The amount of restitution may be up to double my gain or double the victim's loss. The judge may also order that I pay a fine, court costs, attorney fees and the costs of incarceration.
(g) For crimes committed prior to July 1, 2000: In addition to sentencing me to confinement, the judge may order me to serve up to one year of community custody if the total period of confinement ordered is not more than 12 months. If the total period of confinement is more than 12 months, and if this crime is a drug offense, assault in the second degree, assault of a child in the second degree, or any crime against a person in which a specific finding was made that I or an accomplice was armed with a deadly weapon, the judge will order me to serve at least one year of community custody. If this crime is a vehicular homicide, vehicular assault, or a serious violent offense, the judge will order me to serve at least two years of community custody. The actual period of community custody may be longer than my earned early release period. During the period of community custody, I will be under the supervision of the Department of Corrections, and I will have restrictions and requirements placed upon me.
For crimes committed on or after July 1, 2000: In addition to sentencing me to confinement, under certain circumstances the judge may order me to serve up to one year of community custody if the total period of confinement ordered is not more than 12 months, but only if the crime I have been convicted of falls into one of the offense types listed in the following chart. For the offense of failure to register as a sex offender, regardless of the length of confinement, the judge will sentence me for up to 12 months of community custody. If the total period of confinement ordered is more than 12 months, and if the crime I have been convicted of falls into one of the offense types listed in the following chart, the court will sentence me to community custody for the term established for that offense type unless the judge finds substantial and compelling reasons not to do so. If the period of earned release awarded per RCW 9.94A.729 is longer, that will be the term of my community custody. If the crime I have been convicted of falls into more than one category of offense types listed in the following chart, then the community custody term will be based on the offense type that dictates the longest term of community custody.
Certain sentencing alternatives may also include community custody.
During the period of community custody I will be under the supervision of the Department of Corrections, and I will have restrictions and requirements placed upon me, including additional conditions of community custody that may be imposed by the Department of Corrections. My failure to comply with these conditions will render me ineligible for general assistance, RCW 74.04.005 (6)(h), and may result in the Department of Corrections transferring me to a more restrictive confinement status or other sanctions.
If I violate the conditions of my community custody, the Department of Corrections may sanction me up to 60 days confinement per violation and/or revoke my earned early release, or the Department of Corrections may impose additional conditions or other stipulated penalties. The court also has the authority to impose sanctions for any violation.
(h) The prosecuting attorney will make the following recommendation to the judge: _____
_____
_____.
□ The prosecutor will recommend as stated in the plea agreement, which is incorporated by reference.
(i) The judge does not have to follow anyone's recommendation as to sentence. The judge must impose a sentence within the standard range unless the judge finds substantial and compelling reasons not to do so. I understand the following regarding exceptional sentences:
(i) The judge may impose an exceptional sentence below the standard range if the judge finds mitigating circumstances supporting an exceptional sentence.
(ii) The judge may impose an exceptional sentence above the standard range if I am being sentenced for more than one crime and I have an offender score of more than nine.
(iii) The judge may also impose an exceptional sentence above the standard range if the State and I stipulate that justice is best served by imposition of an exceptional sentence and the judge agrees that an exceptional sentence is consistent with and in furtherance of the interests of justice and the purposes of the Sentencing Reform Act.
(iv) The judge may also impose an exceptional sentence above the standard range if the State has given notice that it will seek an exceptional sentence, the notice states aggravating circumstances upon which the requested sentence will be based, and facts supporting an exceptional sentence are proven beyond a reasonable doubt to a unanimous jury, to a judge if I waive a jury, or by stipulated facts.
If the court imposes a standard range sentence, then no one may appeal the sentence. If the court imposes an exceptional sentence after a hearing, either the State or I can appeal the sentence.
(j) If I am not a citizen of the United States, a plea of guilty to an offense punishable as a crime under state law is grounds for deportation, exclusion from admission to the United States, or denial of naturalization pursuant to the laws of the United States.
(k) I may not possess, own, or have under my control any firearm, and under federal law any firearm or ammunition, unless my right to do so is restored by the court in which I am convicted or the superior court in Washington State where I live, and by a federal court if required. I must immediately surrender any concealed pistol license.
(l) I will be ineligible to vote until that right is restored in a manner provided by law. If I am registered to vote, my voter registration will be cancelled. Wash. Const. art. VI, § 3, RCW 29A.04.079, 29A.08.520.
(m) Government assistance may be suspended during any period of confinement.
(n) I will be required to have a biological sample collected for purposes of DNA identification analysis. I will be required to pay a $100.00 DNA collection fee.
Notification Relating to Specific Crimes: If any of the following paragraphs DO NOT APPLY, counsel and the defendant shall strike them out. The defendant and the judge shall initial all paragraphs that DO APPLY.
__ (o) This offense is a most serious offense or "strike" as defined by RCW 9.94A.030, and if I have at least two prior convictions for most serious offenses, whether in this state, in federal court, or elsewhere, the crime for which I am charged carries a mandatory sentence of life imprisonment without the possibility of parole.
__ (p) The judge may sentence me as a first-time offender instead of giving a sentence within the standard range if I qualify under RCW 9.94A.030. This sentence could include as much as 90 days' confinement and up to one year of community custody plus all of the conditions described in paragraph (e). Additionally, the judge could require me to undergo treatment, to devote time to a specific occupation, and to pursue a prescribed course of study or occupational training.
__ (q) The judge may sentence me under the Parenting Sentencing Alternative if I qualify under RCW 9.94A.655. If I am eligible, the judge may order DOC to complete either a risk assessment report or a chemical dependency screening report, or both. If the judge decides to impose the Parenting Sentencing Alternative, the sentence will consist of 12 months of community custody and I will be required to comply with the conditions imposed by the court and by DOC. At any time during community custody, the court may schedule a hearing to evaluate my progress in treatment or to determine if I have violated the conditions of the sentence. The court may modify the conditions of community custody or impose sanctions. If the court finds I violated the conditions or requirements of the sentence or I failed to make satisfactory progress in treatment, the court may order me to serve a term of total confinement within the standard range for my offense.
__ (r) If this crime involves kidnapping involving a minor, including unlawful imprisonment involving a minor who is not my child, I will be required to register where I reside, study or work. The specific registration requirements are set forth in the "Offender Registration" Attachment.
__ (s) If this is a crime of domestic violence, I may be ordered to pay a domestic violence assessment of up to $100.00. If I, or the victim of the offense, have a minor child, the court may order me to participate in a domestic violence perpetrator program approved under RCW 26.50.150.
__ (t) If this crime involves prostitution, or a drug offense associated with hypodermic needles, I will be required to undergo testing for the human immunodeficiency (HIV/AIDS) virus.
__ (u) The judge may sentence me under the drug offender sentencing alternative (DOSA) if I qualify under RCW 9.94A.660. If I qualify and the judge is considering a residential chemical dependency treatment-based alternative, the judge may order that I be examined by DOC before deciding to impose a DOSA sentence. If the judge decides to impose a DOSA sentence, it could be either a prison-based alternative or a residential chemical dependency treatment-based alternative.
If the judge imposes the prison-based alternative, the sentence will consist of a period of total confinement in a state facility for one-half of the midpoint of the standard range, or 12 months, whichever is greater. During confinement, I will be required to undergo a comprehensive substance abuse assessment and to participate in treatment. The judge will also impose a term of community custody of one-half of the midpoint of the standard range.
If the judge imposes the residential chemical dependency treatment-based alternative, the sentence will consist of a term of community custody equal to one-half of the midpoint of the standard sentence range or two years, whichever is greater, and I will have to enter and remain in a certified residential chemical dependency treatment program for a period of three to six months, as set by the court.
As part of this sentencing alternative, the court is required to schedule a progress hearing during the period of residential chemical dependency treatment and a treatment termination hearing scheduled three months before the expiration of the term of community custody. At either hearing, based upon reports by my treatment provider and the department of corrections on my compliance with treatment and monitoring requirements and recommendations regarding termination from treatment, the judge may modify the conditions of my community custody or order me to serve a term of total confinement equal to one-half of the midpoint of the standard sentence range, followed by a term of community custody under RCW 9.94A.701.
During the term of community custody for either sentencing alternative, the judge could prohibit me from using alcohol or controlled substances, require me to submit to urinalysis or other testing to monitor that status, require me to devote time to a specific employment or training, stay out of certain areas, pay $30.00 per month to offset the cost of monitoring and require other conditions, such as affirmative conditions, and the conditions described in paragraph 6(e). The judge, on his or her own initiative, may order me to appear in court at any time during the period of community custody to evaluate my progress in treatment or to determine if I have violated the conditions of the sentence. If the court finds that I have violated the conditions of the sentence or that I have failed to make satisfactory progress in treatment, the court may modify the terms of my community custody or order me to serve a term of total confinement within the standard range.
__ (v) If I am subject to community custody and the judge finds that I have a chemical dependency that has contributed to the offense, the judge may order me to participate in rehabilitative programs or otherwise to perform affirmative conduct reasonably related to the circumstances of the crime for which I am pleading guilty.
__ (w) If this crime involves the manufacture, delivery, or possession with the intent to deliver methamphetamine, including its salts, isomers, and salts of isomers, or amphetamine, including its salts, isomers, and salts of isomers, and if a fine is imposed, $3,000 of the fine may not be suspended. RCW 69.50.401 (2)(b).
__ (x) If this crime involves a violation of the state drug laws, my eligibility for state and federal food stamps, welfare, and education benefits may be affected. 20 U.S.C. § 1091(r) and 21 U.S.C. § 862a.
__ (y) I understand that RCW 46.20.285(4) requires that my driver's license be revoked if the judge finds I used a motor vehicle in the commission of this felony.
__ (z) If this crime involves the offense of vehicular homicide while under the influence of intoxicating liquor, or any drug, as defined by RCW 46.61.502, committed on or after January 1, 1999, an additional two years shall be added to the presumptive sentence for vehicular homicide for each prior offense as defined in RCW 46.61.5055(14).
__ (aa) If I am pleading guilty to felony driving under the influence of intoxicating liquor, or any drugs, or felony actual physical control of a motor vehicle while under the influence of intoxicating liquor, or any drug, in addition to the provisions of chapter 9.94A RCW, I will be required to undergo alcohol or chemical dependency treatment services during incarceration. I will be required to pay the costs of treatment unless the court finds that I am indigent. My driving privileges will be suspended, revoked or denied. Following the period of suspension, revocation or denial, I must comply with the Department of Licensing ignition interlock device requirements. In addition to any other costs of the ignition interlock device, I will be required to pay an additional fee of $20 per month.
__ (bb) For the crimes of vehicular homicide committed while under the influence of intoxicating liquor, or any drug as defined by RCW 46.61.520 or for vehicular assault committed while under the influence of intoxicating liquor, or any drug as defined by RCW 46.61.522, or for any felony driving under the influence (RCW 46.61.502(6)), or felony physical control under the influence (RCW 46.61.504(6)), the court shall add 12 months to the standard sentence range for each child passenger under the age of 16 who is an occupant in the defendant's vehicle.

This mandatory minimum sentence is not the same as the mandatory sentence of life imprisonment without the possibility of parole described in paragraph 6[n].

__ (ff) The offense(s) I am pleading guilty to include(s) a Violation of the Uniform Controlled Substances Act in a protected zone enhancement or manufacture of methamphetamine when a juvenile was present in or upon the premises of manufacture enhancement.

(i) The judge does not have to follow anyone's recommendation as to sentence. The judge must impose a sentence within the standard range unless the judge finds substantial and compelling reasons not to do so (except as provided in paragraph 6(f)). I understand the following regarding exceptional sentences:
(i) The judge may impose an exceptional sentence below the standard range if the judge finds mitigating circumstances supporting an exceptional sentence.
(ii) The judge may impose an exceptional sentence above the standard range if I am being sentenced for more than one crime and I have an offender score of more than nine.
(iii) The judge may also impose an exceptional sentence above the standard range if the State and I stipulate that justice is best served by imposition of an exceptional sentence and the judge agrees that an exceptional sentence is consistent with and in furtherance of the interests of justice and the purposes of the Sentencing Reform Act.

If the court imposes a standard range sentence, then no one may appeal the sentence. If the court imposes an exceptional sentence after a hearing, either the State or I can appeal the sentence.
(j) If I am not a citizen of the United States, a plea of guilty to an offense punishable as a crime under state law is grounds for deportation, exclusion from admission to the United States, or denial of naturalization pursuant to the laws of the United States.

I must immediately surrender any concealed pistol license.
(l) I will be ineligible to vote until that right is restored in a manner provided by law. If I am registered to vote, my voter registration will be cancelled. Wash. Const. art. VI, § 3, RCW 29A.04.079, 29A.08.520.

Court – DUI Sentencing Grid (RCW 46.61.5055 as amended by statute effective June 12, 2014)
1Prior Offenses: Count all prior offenses where the arrest date of the prior offense occurred within seven years before or after the arrest date on the current offense. RCW 46.61.5055 (14)(b). "Prior offense" is defined by RCW 46.61.5055 (14)(a) to include–
2Mandatory Jail, Electronic Home Monitoring (EHM), and 24/7 Sobriety Program: If there are prior offenses within seven years before or after the arrest date of the current offense, the mandatory jail shall be served by imprisonment for the minimum statutory term and may not be suspended unless the court finds that imposition of this mandatory minimum sentence would impose a substantial risk to the offender's physical or mental well-being. The mandatory statutory term may not be converted to EHM. Bremerton v. Bradshaw, 121 Wn. App. 410, 88 P.3d 438 (Div. Two 2004). Where there are no prior offenses within seven years, the court may grant EHM instead of mandatory minimum jail. If there are prior offenses, the mandatory EHM may not be suspended unless the court finds that imposition of this mandatory minimum sentence would impose a substantial risk to the offender's physical or mental well-being. Instead of mandatory EHM, the court may order additional jail time.
If the 24/7 sobriety program is available: Where there is one prior offense, instead of mandatory EHM or additional jail time, the court may order 6-month 24/7 sobriety program monitoring, or a 6-month ignition interlock device requirement, or both. Where there are two or three prior offenses, the court shall order 6-month 24/7 sobriety program monitoring, or a 6-month ignition interlock device requirement, or both. The 24/7 sobriety program is a 24 hour and 7 days a week sobriety program which requires tests of the defendant's blood, breath, urine or other bodily substances to find out if there is alcohol, marijuana, or any controlled substance in his/her body. The defendant will be required to pay the fees and costs for the program. RCW 46.61.5055 (1), (2), (3), (5). RCW 36.28A.330.
Mandatory Conditions of Probation for any Suspended Jail Time: The individual is not to: (i) drive a motor vehicle without a valid license to drive and proof of liability insurance or other financial responsibility (SR 22), (ii) drive or be in physical control of a vehicle while having an alcohol concentration of .08 or more or a THC concentration of 5.00 nanograms per milliliter of whole blood or higher within two hours after driving, (iii) refuse to submit to a test of his or her breath or blood to determine alcohol or drug concentration upon request of a law enforcement officer who has reasonable grounds to believe the person was driving or was in actual physical control of a motor vehicle while under the influence of intoxicating liquor or drug. Except for ignition interlock driver's license and device or alcohol monitoring requirements under RCW 46.61.5055(5), violation of any mandatory condition requires a minimum penalty of 30 days' confinement, which may not be suspended or deferred, and an additional 30-day license suspension. RCW 46.61.5055(11). Courts are required to report violations of mandatory conditions requiring confinement or license suspension to DOL. RCW 46.61.5055.
3Mandatory Monetary Penalty: PSEA 1, RCW 3.62.090(1); Alcohol Violators Fee, RCW 46.61.5054; Criminal Justice Funding (CJF) Penalty, RCW 46.64.055 (Note: RCW 3.62.090 (1) and (2) apply to CJF penalty); Criminal Conviction Fee, RCW 3.62.085.
4If Passenger Under 16: The interpretation of RCW 46.61.5055(6), regarding the fines, is unsettled. Some interpret it as setting a new mandatory minimum and maximum fine, replacing a fine in RCW 46.61.5055 (1) - (3). Some interpret it as setting a fine that is in addition to one of those fines. Apply applicable assessments.
Felony DUI and Felony Physical Control: A current offense is a Class C felony punished under Ch. 9.94A RCW if the defendant has (a) four prior convictions within ten years, or (b) one prior conviction of Veh. Homicide or Veh. Assault, or (c) a prior Class C felony resulting from (a) or (b). "Within ten years" means that the arrest for the prior offense occurred within ten years before or after the arrest for the current offense. RCW 46.61.5055 (14)(c).
Jurisdiction: Court has five years jurisdiction.
Department of Licensing - DUI Administrative Sanctions and Reinstatement Provisions (As amended through June 12, 2014)
Court and Department of Licensing (DOL) Ignition Interlock Requirements, RCW 46.20.380, 46.20.385
Court Order to Comply with Rules and Requirements of DOL: The court orders the person to comply with the rules and requirements of DOL regarding the installation and use of a functioning II device on all motor vehicles operated by the person. If the court orders the person to refrain from consuming any alcohol, the court may order the person to submit to alcohol monitoring and to pay for the monitoring unless the court specifies the cost will be paid with funds available from an alternative source identified by the court. RCW 46.61.5055(5).
Court Ordered Discretionary Ignition Interlock (II) Device: The court may order discretionary II device requirements that last up to the five years jurisdictional limit of the court. The court sets the duration and calibration level. Discretionary II device restrictions begin after any applicable period of suspension, revocation, or denial of driving privileges and after any DOL mandated II device restriction. The court sets the calibration level. RCW 46.20.720(1).
Passenger Under Age 16: The Court shall order the installation and use of an II device for an additional six months.
Deferred Prosecution: For application in DUI Deferred Prosecution, see RCW 46.20.720 and RCW 10.05.140, which require II device in a deferred prosecution of any alcohol-dependency based case.
DOL Imposed Ignition Interlock (II) Device - RCW 46.20.720: For all offenses occurring June 10, 2004 or later, DOL shall require that, after any applicable period of suspension, revocation, or denial of driving privileges, a person may drive only a motor vehicle equipped with a functioning II device if the person is convicted of "an alcohol-related" violation of DUI or Physical Control. The DOL required II device is not required on vehicles owned, leased, or rented by a person's employer or on those vehicles whose care and/or maintenance is the temporary responsibility of the employer and driven at the direction of a person's employer as a requirement of employment during business hours upon proof to DOL of employment affidavit. However, the employer exemption does not apply:
A. (First conviction): for the first 30 days after the ignition interlock device has been installed.
B. (Second or subsequent conviction): for the first 365 days after the ignition interlock device has been installed.
C. When the employer's vehicle is assigned exclusively to the restricted driver and used solely for commuting to and from employment, the employer exemption does not apply. The person must pay a $20 fee per month in addition to costs to install, remove, and lease the ignition interlock device. DOL may waive requirement if the device is not reasonably available in the local area. DOL will give day-for-day credit as allowed by law.
