State of Tennessee v. Jeffery Lance Cochran

Appellant, Jeffrey Lance Cochran, pled guilty to violations of the Motor Vehicle Habitual Offender Act, implied consent law, and driving under the influence, fourth offense. The sentences were ordered to run concurrently to each other; Appellant was sentenced to an effective sentence of one year and six months. He was ordered to serve a mandatory minimum sentence of 150 days and the remainder of the sentence on probation. On the same day, Appellant also pled guilty to failure to appear. He was sentenced to one year and six months for this conviction, to be served consecutively to the effective sentence for the other convictions. Subsequently, Appellant was charged with violating the terms of his probation. Following a hearing, Appellant’s probation was revoked. The trial court ordered Appellant to serve the remainder of his sentence in confinement. Appellant appeals this decision. Because we determine that the trial court properly revoked Appellant’s probation, we affirm the judgment of the trial court.
