Posted by: Azya Thornton on Jun 11, 2025

Court: TN Court of Criminal Appeals

Attorneys 1: Brennan M. Wingerter, District Public Defenders Conference – Appellate Division, Franklin, Tennessee (on appeal) and Shannon J. Holt, Sevierville, Tennessee (at trial) for the appellant, Fernando Ballard.

Attorneys 2: Jonathan Skrmetti, Attorney General and Reporter; Ronald L. Coleman, Assistant Attorney General; Jimmy Dunn, District Attorney General; and Charles L. Murphy, Assistant District Attorney General, for the appellee, State of Tennessee.

Judge(s): EASTER

Defendant, Fernando Ballard, appeals the trial court’s decision to fully revoke his probation. He contends that the trial court did not have authority to fully revoke his probation because there was insufficient evidence to find that Defendant committed a non- technical violation. After review, we affirm the judgment of the trial court.
