State of Tennessee v. Trenton Ray Forrester
Syllabus
The defendant, Trenton Ray Forrester, aggrieved of his Henderson County Circuit Court jury convictions of aggravated burglary and theft of property valued at more than $1,000 but less than $2,500, appeals, challenging the sufficiency of the convicting evidence and the propriety of the fully-incarcerative, six-year effective sentence. We affirm both the conviction and the accompanying sentence. Because, however, the trial court failed to consider the defendant's ability to pay when setting the amount of restitution, we reverse the restitution order and remand the case for a new restitution hearing.
Judges: Judge James Curwood Witt, Jr.
