STATE OF TENNESSEE v. JOSH MOON
Appeal from the Circuit Court for Sevier County
No. 7642 Rex Henry Ogle, Judge

No. E2000-00690-CCA-R3-CD
March 6, 2001

The defendant appeals from his Sevier County Circuit Court sentence for simple assault, a Class A misdemeanor.  The trial court sentenced the defendant to eleven months and 29 days, with six months of the sentence to be served incarcerated in jail and the balance on supervised probation.  The trial court ordered restitution to the victim in the amount of $18,700 for medical expenses.  In this direct appeal, the defendant complains that he should have received full probation.  We affirm the judgment of the trial court.
