Court accepts plea in one case, reinstates probation in another and resets several dockets

During routine docket business in the Dixon County criminal calendar, the court accepted plea agreements and resolved several scheduling matters.

Austin Wayne Carver entered a plea to count six (resisting arrest without a weapon) and the court found him guilty by agreement, sentencing him to time served. The court also approved an agreed order to release Carver on a $10,000 bond with GPS monitoring and community-corrections conditions pending a Jan. 6, 2027 hearing.

The court also addressed Susanna Elizabeth Salas's case. Counsel reported Salas completed court-ordered treatment. Salas confirmed on the record that she completed treatment, and the court reinstated her to supervised probation while revoking the prior judicial diversion; the conviction will become final on her record per the agreement.

The judge and counsel reset multiple other cases, including calendar coordination for several defendants and motions hearings. The court announced several new dates for upcoming matters and noted that some portions of the docket would be taken outside the public livestream when in-camera review of evidence or sensitive matters is required.
