State of Tennessee v. Ericka Alicia Smith

Defendant, Ericka Alicia Smith, received a twelve-year sentence to be served on Community Corrections after pleading guilty to attempted aggravated child neglect.  After holding a hearing, the trial court determined that Defendant violated the conditions of her alternative sentence and ordered her to serve the remainder of her sentence in confinement.  On appeal, Defendant argues that the trial court abused its discretion by refusing to impose another alternative sentence.  We affirm the judgment of the trial court.
