State of Tennessee v. Donald J. Moore - Dissenting

I respectfully dissent from the majority opinion in this case. First, I am compelled to note that there is not a transcript of the guilty plea hearing in the record. It is well settled that when a defendant appeals a sentencing issue and fails to provide a transcript of the guilty plea hearing in the record, that this court presumes that the action of the trial court was correct. See State v. Keen, 996 S.W.2d 842, 844 (Tenn. Crim. App. 1999); State v. Griffis, 964 S.W.2d 577, 592-93 (Tenn. Crim. App. 1997).
