Court of Appeal of Louisiana, Third Circuit.

October 29, 1997.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Robert Richard Bryant, Jr., Lake Charles, for State.

Eugene Bouquet, Lake Charles, for Jack Watson.

Before WOODARD, SULLIVAN and PICKETT, JJ.


WOODARD, Judge.

The State of Louisiana (State) appeals the trial court's denial of its Motion to Reconsider Sentence, which was filed after a new sentencing court revoked the probation of the defendant, Jack Watson, and sentenced him to three years, modifying the five years that were initially imposed on the defendant by the original sentencing judge before the defendant violated the terms of his probation. We reverse, vacate and remand with instructions.
