State v. Imperiale
Annotate this Case
The Supreme Court affirmed the judgment of the trial court revoking Defendant's probation and sentencing him to an effective term of imprisonment of two years, holding that the trial court did not err in denying Defendant's motion to dismiss the violation of probation charge.
Defendant pleaded guilty to illegal possession of child pornography in the second degree. After Defendant was released on probation he was charged with violating his probation for failing to complete sex offender treatment. The trial court found that Defendant had violated his probation, revoked his probation, and sentenced him to a term of imprisonment of six years. Defendant appealed, arguing that the condition of probation on which the violation of probation charge was predicated violated his Fourteenth Amendment rights to due process and equal protection and the constitutional prohibition against the imposition of cruel and unusual punishment. The Supreme Court affirmed, holding that Defendant's claims of error lacked merit.
