State of Tennessee v. Jonathan Ellerbasch, Alias

Defendant, Jonathan Ellerbasch, Alias, pleaded guilty in the Knox County Criminal Court
to aggravated assault with serious bodily injury. Following a sentencing hearing, the trial
court imposed a sentence of three years to be served in the Department of Correction. On
appeal, Defendant contends that the trial court abused its discretion by denying an
alternative sentence and in ordering a sentence of confinement. Following a thorough
review, we affirm the judgment of the trial court.
