Indiana Court of Appeals
Cole G. Strack v. State of Indiana
21A-CR-922
Criminal. Affirms Cole Strack’s six-year sentence, with two years suspended, for convictions of operating a vehicle while intoxicated and possession of marijuana. Finds the Wells Superior Court did not violate Strack’s right to allocution. Also finds the trial court’s error in precluding evidence pertaining to parenting issues with his child’s mother was harmless. Finally, finds that while the trial court’s failure to afford mitigating weight to Strack’s entry of a guilty plea was an abuse of discretion, declines to remand for resentencing due to the abuse of discretion and alleged cumulative effect of the trial court’s errors.
