State of Tennessee v. Billy Wayne Quillen

Case Number
E2004-00417-CCA-R3-CD

The defendant, Billy Wayne Quillen, pled guilty to two counts of attempt to obtain a controlled substance by fraud and was placed on judicial diversion for two years. His diversion was subsequently revoked, and the trial court reinstated his original two-year sentence to be served at 100%. On appeal, the defendant argues that the trial court erred in ordering him to serve his sentence at 100% without release eligibility, and the State agrees. Based upon our review, we modify the defendant's sentence to reflect release eligibility after service of 30% of the two-year sentence.
