Contra Costa District Attorney Diana Becton A state pilot program will help the Contra Costa County District Attorney’s Office process resentencing applications from inmates in state prisons in a more timely manner. On Friday, the DA’s office was notified that it was selected to participate in the California County Resentencing Pilot Program, funded under the state budget signed recently by Gov. Gavin Newsom. The program builds upon Assembly Bill 2942, which “allows for a district attorney to review old sentences and determine if the sentence still serves the interest of justice and the community,” the DA’s Office said.
