Court: TN Court of Criminal Appeals

Attorneys 1: Anthony M. Patton, Clifton, Tennessee, pro se.

Attorneys 2: Jonathan Skrmetti, Attorney General and Reporter; Benjamin A. Ball, Senior Assistant Attorney General; Dan E. Armstrong, District Attorney General, and Victor J. Vaughn, Assistant District Attorney General for the appellee, State of Tennessee.

Judge(s): WILSON

Defendant, Anthony M. Patton, appeals from the trial court’s denial of his motion, filed pursuant to Tennessee Rule of Criminal Procedure 36, to correct a clerical mistake in the judgments entered against him. He asserts that the trial court erred in refusing to apply pretrial jail credit to the second of two consecutively imposed sentences, arguing that he is entitled to receive such credit on both sentences. He also argues that his plea agreement is void as a result. The State responds that the trial court correctly applied jail credits to Defendant’s first sentence. After review, we affirm the judgment of the trial court.
