STATE OF TENNESSEE v. CANTRELL DEVON HODGES

Posted by: Tanja Trezise on Dec 21, 2023

Court: TN Court of Criminal Appeals

Attorneys 1: Cory Hancock, Jackson, Tennessee, for the appellant, Cantrell Devon Hodges.

Attorneys 2: Jonathan Skrmetti, Attorney General and Reporter; Caroline Weldon, Assistant Attorney General; Jody S. Pickens, District Attorney General; and Bradley Champine, Assistant District Attorney General, for the appellee, State of Tennessee.

Judge(s): WITT

The defendant, Cantrell Devon Hodges, pleaded guilty to two counts of possession of a firearm after having been convicted of a felony drug offense, two counts of possession of marijuana with intent to sell or deliver, and one count of possession of drug paraphernalia after the trial court denied his motion to suppress evidence recovered from his home. As part of his plea agreement, he reserved a certified question of law for appeal, challenging the denial of his motion to suppress. Because the certified question is not dispositive of the case as required by Tennessee Rule of Criminal Procedure 37(b)(2)(A), we dismiss the appeal.
