Court of Appeals of Indiana
Patrick Smith v. State of Indiana (mem. dec.)
21A-CR-492
Criminal. Reverses the sex offender conditions of Patrick Smith’s probation, including the requirement that he register as a sex offender following his conviction of Class D felony battery of a child. Finds that, given the limited record on appeal, the Parke Circuit Court abused its discretion by imposing sex offender probation conditions as part of Smith’s sentence. Remands with instructions to vacate the sex offender conditions.
