Court: TN Court of Criminal Appeals

Attorneys 1: Chase T. Smith, Clarksville, Tennessee, for the appellant, Tandrea Laquise Sanders.

Attorneys 2: Jonathan Skrmetti, Attorney General and Reporter; Katherine Orr, Assistant Attorney General; Robert J. Nash, District Attorney General; and Jeffrey P. Watts, Assistant District Attorney General, for the appellee, State of Tennessee.

Judge(s): GREENHOLTZ

The Defendant, Tandrea Laquise Sanders, pled guilty to assault and contributing to the delinquency of a minor. After a sentencing hearing, the trial court imposed concurrent sentences of eleven months and twenty-nine days. The sentences were suspended to probation after service of six months in custody. On appeal, the Defendant argues that the trial court abused its discretion in ordering a sentence of split confinement and failed to properly fix a percentage of the sentence to be served before consideration of rehabilitative programs. Upon our review, we respectfully affirm the trial court’s judgments.
