IN THE COURT OF APPEALS OF THE STATE OF WASHINGTON
DIVISION II
In the Matter of the Personal Restraint of:
DELANE MICHAEL DUFLOTH,
Petitioner.
No. 55851-3-II
UNPUBLISHED OPINION
LEE, C.J. — Delane M. Dufloth seeks relief from personal restraint imposed following his
2021 pleas of guilty to bail jumping under two Kitsap County cause numbers, 18-1-01260-18 and
18-1-01867-18.1 He argues that because the two bail jumping convictions arise out of the same
failure to appear, they violate double jeopardy.
The State concedes that under State v. O’Brien, 164 Wn. App. 924, 928-29, 267 P.3d 422
(2011), multiple convictions for bail jumping under different cause numbers arising out of the
same failure to appear violate double jeopardy.
We accept the State’s concession. Accordingly, we grant Dufloth’s petition, reverse the
bail jumping conviction in cause number 18-1-01867-18, and remand to the trial court to vacate
the conviction for and dismiss with prejudice the charge of bail jumping in cause number 18-1-
01867-18.
1 Dufloth pleaded guilty to other charges in both cause numbers, but they are not at issue here.
