941 P.2d 674 (1997)

87 Wash.App. 238

The STATE of Washington, Respondent, v. Troy Lee GUY, Appellant. STATE of Washington, Respondent, v. Joey Allen AMMONS, Appellant.

Court of Appeals of Washington, Division 2.

August 1, 1997.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Suzan Clark, Anderson & Clark, James J. Sowder, Vancouver, for Appellant.

Philip Myers, Clark County Deputy Pros. Atty, Mark E. Beam, Clark County Pros. Office, Vancouver, for Respondent.

SEINFELD, Judge.

The issue in these linked cases is whether a felon who violates a court order to report to partial confinement on a work crew may be held criminally liable for escaping from "custody," within the meaning of RCW 9A.76.110 (first degree escape). Holding that a felon may escape custody by failing to be where the sentencing court ordered him to be, we affirm.
