State of Arkansas v. Terrance Duggar
Date: 02-17-2013
Case Number: CA CR 12–521
Judge: Unknown
Court: Circuit Court, Pulaski County, Arkansas
Plaintiff's Attorney: Pulaski County, Arkansas, District Attorney's Office
Defendant's Attorney: Sara Merritt
Description:
Little Rock, Arkansas, criminal defense lawyer represented the Defendant charged with possession of marijuana.
The State charged Terrance Duggar with violating multiple drug-related statutes. A jury found Duggar guilty of a lesser-included offense: possessing at least four ounces but less than ten pounds of marijuana, which is a Class D felony. Ark.Code Ann. § 5–64–419(b)(5)(iii) (Supp.2011). He was acquitted on all other charges. The circuit court's final sentencing order sentenced Duggar to seventy-two months in the Arkansas Department of Correction and fined him $10,000 dollars. Duggar appeals that order on two grounds: the circuit court mistakenly admitted marijuana into evidence because there were missing links in the chain of custody, and there was insufficient evidence to support his conviction.
