Indiana Court of Appeals
Brandon L. Keener v. State of Indiana
24A-CR-1894
Criminal. Affirms Brandon Kenner’s conviction in Allen Superior Court of domestic battery, the revocation of his probation, Keener’s two-and-a-half years sentence for the domestic battery conviction and his suspended sentence being executed for the probation violation. Finds the trial court did not err by ignoring Keener’s meritless personal Criminal Rule 4(B) objections to his Nov. 28 trial date in the battery cause. Also finds Keener’s sentence in the battery cause is not inappropriate under Appellate Rule 7(B), and the trial court did not abuse its discretion by executing Keener’s sentence in the nuisance cause as a sanction for Keener violating his probation. Attorney for appellant: David Joley. Attorneys for appellee: Attorney General Todd Rokita, Andrew Sweet.
