Paris – The case of an alleged Lamar County drug dealer is remanded back to trial for a new punishment hearing following appeal.

Steven Deon Jones was found in possession of a controlled substance, namely crack cocaine, in Nov. 2007 outside a Paris apartment complex.

The appeals court has affirmed the conviction but said the state failed to prove the crime was within 1,000 feet of a school and therefore not in a drug free zone. Because of that, Jones could receive a lesser sentence.
