Summary
Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Linn County, Ian K. Thornhill, Judge. AFFIRMED. Considered by Bower, C.J., Vaitheswaran, J., and Potterfield, S.J. Opinion by Potterfield, S.J. (5 pages)
After he violated the terms of his probation, the district court revoked Robert Storm’s deferred judgment and imposed the two-year term of incarceration for his attempted-burglary conviction. Storm appeals, arguing the district court “did not adequately consider [his] mental health issues” and that “keeping [him] on probation and supervising him was a more appropriate and effective way to address” his probation violations. OPINION HOLDS: Because the district court chose an option properly before it and Storm has not shown the court abused its discretion in reaching its decision, we affirm.
