Walton v. State (Per Curiam)
Annotate this CaseAppellant pleaded guilty to several drug offenses in 2006. The circuit court sentenced Defendant to thirty-six months' imprisonment along with eighty-four months' suspended imposition in sentence. In 2010, the State filed a petition to revoke Appellant's suspended sentence. Appellant pleaded no contest. The circuit court then revoked Appellant's suspended sentence and sentenced him to 168 months' imprisonment. Appellant subsequently filed a pro se petition to correct an illegal sentence, arguing that the circuit court's revocation order was beyond the statutory maximum to which he was originally exposed. The circuit court denied the petition. The Supreme Court affirmed, holding that Appellant's sentence of 168 months' imprisonment upon revocation was within the statutory limits to which he was originally exposed.
