Description
The defendant, James Watson, was charged by bill of information with driving while intoxicated, fourth offense, in violation of LSA-R.S. 14:98. After the trial court denied the defendants motion to quash the bill of information, the defendant entered a plea of guilty, reserving his right to appeal pursuant to State v. Crosby, 338 So.2d 584 (La. 1976). The defendant was sentenced to serve thirty years imprisonment at hard labor with all but sixty days suspended, placed under house arrest and supervised probation for a period of five years with numerous conditions, and fined $5,000.00 plus costs. The defendant appeals the denial of the motion to quash. For the following reasons, we affirm the trial courts ruling on the motion to quash and the defendants adjudication as a fourth-time offender. We amend the defendants sentence to clarify the sentence of supervised probation for a period of five years, home incarceration for the remainder of the term of probation, and the seizure and sale of the vehicle being driven at the time of the offense. We affirm the defendants sentence as amended.
