The issues are:(1)whether Shaw's due process rights were violated when the trial court changed his sentence from eighteen months in the county jail to eighteen months in prison; and (2)whether the trial court violated the double jeopardy clause when it changed Shaw's sentence.
Shaw argues that the trial court violated his due process rights in resentencing him without notice and a meaningful opportunity to prepare and be heard.
Shaw also argues that his due process rights were violated when he was resentenced because a sentence to the prison system is a form of increased punishment.
