IN THE COURT OF APPEALS OF THE STATE OF WASHINGTON

DIVISION II

In the Matter of the Personal Restraint of No. 51736-1-II

JAMES CHARLES MATHES,

UNPUBLISHED OPINION

Petitioner.

GLASGOW, C.J.James Charles Mathes seeks relief from personal restraint imposed following his eight 2015 Pierce County convictions after an incident during which he kidnapped his girlfriend, assaulted her, and assaulted law enforcement officers by shooting at them. In this personal restraint petition (PRP) proceeding, Mathes raises numerous arguments, including that the trial court abused its discretion by excluding expert testimony, Mathess trial counsel rendered ineffective assistance of counsel, the trial court violated Mathess speedy trial

and time-for-trial rights, the trial court violated the appearance of fairness doctrine, and the State

committed prosecutorial misconduct. We disagree with all of Mathess arguments except for his argument that he is entitled to resentencing based on a corrected offender score. Accordingly, we grant in part and deny in part Mathess petition and remand for resentencing. Filed

Eventually Toste found a babysitter, and Mathes picked her up and the two went to his mothers house. Mathes and Toste had intercourse, and Mathes began asking Toste if she was having affairs. When Toste denied having any affairs, Mathes accused her of lying and became agitated. Mathes then reached underneath the mattress and pulled out a gun. Mathes injected what Toste believed to be heroin. Mathes and Toste went into the living room where they continued to talk. Mathes repeatedly asked Toste about her cheating, accused her of being married and having a baby, and accused Toste of lying when she denied having affairs. In the middle of the night, Mathes asked Toste to find him some drugs so she called her daughters best friend, Hannah. While on the phone with Hannah, Toste unsuccessfully tried to hint that she was in trouble. Later, Toste called her daughter, Stephanie, and asked about drugs and continued to hint that she was in trouble by saying, quotesdbs_dbs47.pdfusesText_47
