Civil plenary.

William Scott Dillon v. State of Indiana (mem. dec.)
22A-CR-852
Criminal. Affirms the revocation of William Scott Dillon’s placement on work release and the order that he serve the placement in the Department of Correction. Finds Indiana Code permitted the Hamilton Superior Court revoke Dillon’s placement and commit him to the DOC, and his contract with Hamilton County Community Corrections expressly informed him of the court’s authority to do so. Also finds Dillon’s due process rights weren’t violated. Finally, finds the trial court did not abuse its discretion when it ordered Dillon to serve the balance of his placement with HCCC in the DOC.
