State of Tennessee v. Sommer Leininger

Syllabus

The Defendant, Sommer Leininger, appeals as of right, from the Maury County Circuit Court's revocation of her diversionary sentence and order of six months' incarceration for her conviction for reckless aggravated assault. Tenn. Code Ann. § 39-13-102. The Defendant contends that (1) the trial court abused its discretion by ordering her to serve six months of split confinement instead of probation and (2) the trial court improperly restricted her ability to accumulate good behavior credits while incarcerated. Following our review, we affirm the judgment of the trial court in part but reverse and remand the case for entry of a corrected judgment removing the trial court's restriction on the Defendant's ability to accumulate good behavior credits.

Judges: Judge D. Kelly Thomas, Jr.
