State v. Dawsongreen

2 sentences

2002In support of his argument, Appellant relies on Dawson, 343 Ark. 683, 692 , 38 S.W.3d 319, 324 (quoting Lord v. Mazzanti, 339 Ark. 25, 29 , 2 S.W.3d 76, 79 (1999)), wherein this court held that after ninety days a circuit court could not change its judgment in order “to make it speak what it did not speak, but ought to have spoken.” The State counters that the present matter is distinguishable from Dawson in that the modification was not made sua sponte by the court, but rather was made in the context of a probation-revocation hearing, and thus, the issue is governed by Ark.

2022Generally, a defendant in a revocation hearing is not entitled to the full panoply of rights that attend a criminal prosecution, but he or she is entitled to due process.7 As we recognized in Goforth, the United States Supreme Court has held that a defendant is entitled to the right to confront and cross-examine adverse witnesses unless good cause is shown for not allowing confrontation. 8 This holding is codified at Arkansas Code Annotated section 16-93-307(c)(1),9 which states that “[t]he defendant has the right to counsel and to confront and cross-examine an adverse witness unless the court
