21                                 MEMORANDUM OPINION

22 SUTIN, Judge.
 1        Defendant appealed the district court’s entry of a conditional discharge and

 2 unsupervised probation following Defendant’s appeal of her conviction in magistrate

 3 court of resisting, evading, or obstructing an officer in violation of NMSA 1978,

 4 Section 30-22-1 (1981).       On appeal, Defendant argued that the district court

 5 improperly accepted a plea from her without complying with the protections afforded

 6 by Rule 5-303(F) NMRA. This Court issued a calendar notice proposing to reverse.

 7 The State has filed a memorandum in response to this Court’s notice of proposed

 8 summary disposition, stating that it does not oppose reversal on the grounds stated in

 9 the calendar notice. This Court therefore reverses the district court for the reasons set

10 out in our notice of proposed disposition.

11        IT IS SO ORDERED.
