State of Tennessee v. Cecil Glen Dobbs, Jr.

Syllabus

The Defendant, Cecil G. Dobbs, pleaded guilty to aggravated assault and theft of property valued at less than $500 in return for a sentence of seven years of split confinement with two years of incarceration followed by five years of probation. A probation violation warrant was issued based upon subsequently incurred charges and, after a hearing, the trial court revoked the Defendant's probation sentence, ordering that he serve his sentence in confinement. On appeal, the Defendant asserts that the trial court abused its discretion when it revoked his probation sentence and by \not allowing him to be heard\ at the probation revocation hearing. After review, we affirm the trial court's judgment.
