Court revokes supervision for Nicholas M. Henderson, sentences him to one year in state jail
Summary
A defendant placed on community supervision in 2022 pleaded true to alleged reporting violations for multiple months in 2024; the court adjudicated guilt and sentenced him to one year in a state jail facility.
Nicholas Michael Henderson told the court he failed to report to his supervision officer for several months in 2024 and pleaded true to the alleged violation; the judge adjudicated the violation and sentenced Henderson to one year in a state jail facility.
Why it matters: The court found repeated failures to report constituted a violation of Henderson's community-supervision terms; sentencing ended community supervision and imposed incarceration in the state jail range.
What happened in court
Prosecutors said Henderson failed to report as directed for July through November 2024. Henderson acknowledged the violations during a plea colloquy and told the judge he had "hit a bad spot" and had struggled to keep in contact while trying to work and pay fines. The state proposed adjudication and a sentence of one year in state jail. The defense had no objection to the state's recommendation.
The court adjudicated Henderson guilty, revoked his community supervision, and imposed a one-year state-jail sentence, giving credit for time served. The judge admonished Henderson about the limited right to appeal the motion-based adjudication and warned that, as a felony conviction, he would be restricted from possessing weapons or ammunition.
