State of Tennessee v. Melvin L. Horne

Syllabus

Defendant, Melvin L. Horne, appeals the revocation of his probation, arguing that the trial court abused its discretion when it relied on a note on the court file from the original guilty plea hearing. The State responds that the note is not properly included in the record, that Defendant waived consideration of the issue by failing to object during the hearing, and that the trial court did not abuse its discretion. Upon our review of the record, we find no abuse of discretion and affirm the judgment of the trial court.

Judges: Judge Timothy L. Easter
