Court: TN Court of Criminal Appeals

Attorneys 1: Mitchell A. Raines (on appeal), Franklin, Tennessee, and Joseph Price (at revocation hearing), Clarksville, Tennessee, for the appellant, Mikal B. Morrow.

Attorneys 2: Jonathan Skrmetti, Attorney General and Reporter; Raymond J. Lepone, Assistant Attorney General; Robert J. Nash, District Attorney General; and Crystal M. Morgan, Assistant District Attorney General, for the appellee, State of Tennessee.

Judge(s): HIXSON

The Defendant, Mikal B. Morrow, appeals the trial court’s revocation of his effective six-year probationary sentence for aggravated assault by strangulation, false imprisonment, and interference with a 911 call. On appeal, he alleges that (1) the State failed to prove by a preponderance of the evidence that he violated the terms of his probation and (2) the trial court abused its discretion by fully revoking his probation after finding the Defendant had absconded. Following our review, we affirm the judgment of the trial court.
