State of Tennessee v. Kawisha Price

The appellant, Kawisha Price, was indicted for aggravated child abuse. She entered a best- interest plea to aggravated assault with a sentence of eight years as a Range II multiple offender, with the trial court to determine the manner of service of the sentence. The trial court subsequently ordered her to serve the sentence in confinement. She appeals, arguing that the trial court decided the manner of service of the sentence before any proof was offered on her behalf and erred in ordering her to serve the sentence in confinement. For the following reasons, we affirm the judgment of the trial court.
