Posted by: Karen Belcher on Sep 29, 2020

Court: TN Court of Criminal Appeals

Attorneys 1: Craig P. Fickling, District Public Defender; and Allison R. West, Assistant Public Defender, for the appellant, Terry Lin Johnson.

Attorneys 2: Herbert H. Slatery III, Attorney General and Reporter; Ronald L. Coleman, Assistant Attorney General; Bryant C. Dunaway, District Attorney General; and Beth Willis, Assistant District Attorney General, for the appellee, State of Tennessee.

Judge(s): EASTER

Defendant, Terry Lin Johnson, appeals from the trial court’s full revocation of probation in November 2019. Defendant argues that the trial court abused its discretion when it required Defendant to serve his entire sentence because no substantial evidence of a probation violation was presented at the probation revocation hearing. Defendant also argues that the trial court acted too harshly when it required Defendant to serve his entire sentence. After conducting a thorough review of the record, we affirm the judgment of the trial.
