STATE OF TENNESSEE v. THOMAS L. GOUGE

Attorneys:
David Crockett, Elizabethton, Tennessee (at trial), and Steve McEwen,
Mountain City, Tennessee (on appeal), for the appellant, Thomas L.
Gouge.

General; and Kent Chitwood, Assistant District Attorney General, for
the appellee, State of Tennessee.
Judge: WADE
First Paragraph:
The defendant, Thomas L. Gouge, appeals from the trial court's
revocation of probation requiring a sixty-day jail sentence. The
order of revocation provided that the defendant reside in a work
release facility for an unspecified amount of time after service of
sixty days and that his probationary release was conditioned upon his
refraining from taking residence "with any female to whom he is not
married." The order of revocation is affirmed; the sentence, however,
is modified by deleting the provision prohibiting the sharing of the
residence with an unmarried woman.

the record, we affirm the dismissal of the petition.
