Marshall v. State
Annotate this CaseDefendant pleaded guilty to a third or subsequent offense of possession of a controlled substance, a felony, and misdemeanor driving while under the influence. The Supreme Court affirmed, holding that the district court did not err by ordering Defendant to receive and pay for a substance abuse assessment and then by relying on the assessment at sentencing to determine that defendant was a “qualified offender” and, in turn, recommending that Defendant successfully complete substance abuse treatment while in prison through the Intensive Treatment Unit or a comparable program, as the district court’s decision was in accordance with the law.
