State of Tennessee v. Areanna O. Lloyd - dissenting in part

Syllabus

I agree with the majority's well-reasoned conclusion that the trial court maintained jurisdiction over Defendant's sentence pursuant to Tennessee Code Annotated section 40-35-212 to consider her petition for a suspended sentence. I disagree with the majority's conclusion that the trial court correctly modified the Defendant's agreed upon sentence, which was the result of a fully negotiated plea agreement between Defendant and the State just mere months earlier. There is no evidence of post-sentencing information or developments that would warrant an alteration of the agreed upon manner of service of Defendant's sentence. I respectfully dissent.
