Becker v. State

Patricia Becker appeals from an order of the trial court revoking her misdemeanor probation. She had previously been convicted of assault and assessed punishment of a fine of $250 and confinement in jail for one year, probated for one year. The State filed a motion to revoke based upon allegations that Appellant had committed theft and had failed to pay her fine, court costs, and monthly probation fee. Following a contested hearing, the trial court determined that Appellant had violated the terms and conditions of probation by committing theft. Regarding the remaining allegations, the court found she had established her affirmative defense of an inability to pay. Based upon the proven violation, the trial court revoked its prior probation order. Appellant challenges the revocation order by a single point of error. We affirm.
