C. (§27.15) Exhaustion of Jurisdiction With Entry of Judgment

Unless statutorily authorized to retain jurisdiction, the sentencing court loses its jurisdiction over a case once the judgment and sentence have occurred. See State ex rel. Williams v. Wilson, 63 S.W.3d 650 (Mo. banc 2002); State ex rel. Simmons v. White, 866 S.W.2d 443 (Mo. banc 1993). The court may retain jurisdiction under the following:

· § 559.115.2, RSMo Supp. 2004 (the granting of probation within
120 days after the defendant has been delivered to the Department of Corrections)

· § 217.364, RSMo 2000 (drug treatment program)
