*1 Cite as 2025 Ark. App. 288 ARKANSAS COURT OF APPEALS DIVISION III No. CR-24-620 Opinion Delivered May 7, 2025 MICHAEL GOODSON
APPELLANT APPEAL FROM THE CRAIGHEAD COUNTY CIRCUIT COURT, WESTERN V. DISTRICT
[NO. 16JCR-17-1615] STATE OF ARKANSAS
APPELLEE HONORABLE CHRIS THYER, JUDGE AFFIRMED STEPHANIE POTTER BARRETT, Judge
Michael Goodson appeals the order of the Craighead County Circuit Court revoking his probation in case number 16JCR-17-1615. On appeal, Goodson argues the circuit court erred in revoking his probation because the State did not present sufficient evidence.
On January 10, 2023, Goodson pleaded guilty to possession of methamphetamine, two to ten grams, and the circuit court sentenced him to five years’ probation. The terms and conditions of his probation included that he be of good behavior and not violate any laws. The State filed a petition to revoke Goodson’s probation on May 9, 2024, alleging that Goodson had failed to live a law-abiding life and was found to be in possession of methamphetamine on April 9, 2024. At the June 11, 2024 hearing, the circuit court granted the State’s petition to revoke.
Goodson’s probation was also revoked in two other cases, 16JCR-17-1007 and 16JCR- 22-285, both of which are now before this court. [1] We adopt the determinations made in the companion case Goodson v. State , 2025 Ark. App. 287, ___ S.W.3d ___.
Affirmed.
H ARRISON and T UCKER , JJ., agree.
Terry Goodwin Jones , for appellant.
Tim Griffin , Att’y Gen., by: Michael Zangari , Ass’t Att’y Gen., for appellee.
[1] The circuit court held a combined revocation hearing for all three cases but issued separate sentencing orders in each case. Goodson has filed separate appeals, and today we hand down opinions in all three cases. See Goodson v. State , 2025 Ark. App. 286, ___ S.W.3d ___; Goodson v. State , 2025 Ark. App. 287, ___ S.W.3d ___.
