Court: TN Court of Criminal Appeals

Attorneys 1: Jerri Green, District Public Defender, and Barry W. Kuhn (on appeal) and Kathryn A. McLain (at plea hearing), Assistant District Public Defenders, for the appellant, Montrell Reid.

Attorneys 2: Jonathan Skrmetti, Attorney General and Reporter; Park Huff, Assistant Attorney General; Steven J. Mulroy, District Attorney General; and Lauren Hutton, Assistant District Attorney General, for the appellee, State of Tennessee.

Judge(s): WILSON

Defendant, Montrell Reid, appeals from his guilty-pleaded convictions for harassment and stalking, both Class A misdemeanors. Under the plea agreement, Defendant agreed to serve eleven months and twenty-nine days for each count, with the sentences to be served consecutively and the manner of service to be determined by the trial court. At sentencing, the trial court denied Defendant’s request for probation and ordered that he serve his sentence in confinement. On appeal, Defendant contends that the trial court erred in denying his request for probation. Following our review, we affirm the trial court’s judgments as to the denial of probation, but we remand for a determination of the percentage of service pursuant to Tennessee Code Annotated section 40-35-302(d).
