State vs. Orlando Ward

Undercover police officers arrested defendant and recovered 2.7 grams of cocaine from his vehicle. Defendant was indicted for possession of cocaine with intent to sell or deliver, a Class C felony. He entered a plea of guilty to the lesser offense of attempt to commit possession of cocaine with intent to sell or deliver, a Class D felony. As a part of the negotiated plea agreement defendant agreed to a sentence of two (2) years as a standard offender. The manner of service was left for determination by the trial court. Defendant now appeals the trial court's finding that he should serve his sentence without the opportunity for alternative sentencing. We affirm the judgment of the trial court.
