Von Schounmacher v. State

Appellant was indicted in 1993 for the offense of burglary of a building. He subsequently entered into a plea bargain with the state, in which he pled nolo contendere to burglary of a building. In exchange for his plea of guilty, the state agreed to recommend that punishment be assessed at eight years confinement and also recommended deferred adjudication. Pursuant to the plea agreement, the trial court deferred adjudication of guilt and placed appellant on eight years probation.
