23A-27-19. Continuing jurisdiction to suspend sentence--Notice to prosecuting attorney and victim--Supervision--Revocation. The sentencing court retains jurisdiction for the purpose of suspending any such sentence for a period of two years from the effective date of the judgment of conviction, notwithstanding the fact that the time for an appeal from such judgment is limited to a shorter period of time. The court shall notify the attorney who prosecuted such person or shall notify the successor in office of such attorney at least fourteen days in advance of such suspension. Such notice shall be provided any victim by such attorney pursuant to the provisions of § 23A-27-1.2. Any person whose sentence is suspended pursuant to this section is under the supervision of the Board of Pardons and Paroles, except as provided in § 23A-27-18.2. The board is charged with the responsibility for enforcing the conditions imposed by the sentencing judge, and the board retains jurisdiction to revoke the suspended portion of the sentence for violation of the terms of the suspension.
