State of Tennessee v. Mell Thomas Bruton, aka Mel T. Bruton

The defendant, Mell Thomas Bruton, aka Mel T. Bruton, appeals the revocation of his community corrections sentence, arguing that the trial court abused its discretion in revoking the sentence based on the defendant’s unauthorized trip out of state when the trip was necessitated by a family emergency. Following our review, we affirm the judgment of the trial court.
