Court: TN Court of Criminal Appeals

Attorneys 1: Gerald L. Gulley (at motion for new trial and on appeal), and John M. Boucher, Jr., (at trial), Knoxville, Tennessee, for the appellant, Kendrick Rodgers.

Attorneys 2: Jonathan Skrmetti, Attorney General and Reporter; Garrett D. Ward, Senior Assistant Attorney General; Charme P. Allen, District Attorney General; and TaKisha M. Fitzgerald and G. Lawrence Dillon, Assistant District Attorneys General, for the appellee, State of Tennessee.

Judge(s): HIXSON

The Defendant appeals his convictions for aggravated robbery, carjacking, and driving on a revoked license. He argues that (1) the trial judge erred in denying his motion for a mistrial and the trial judge to recuse itself; (2) the evidence adduced at trial was insufficient to support a guilty verdict on the carjacking charge; and (3) cumulative error warrants reversal of his convictions. After our review, we affirm the judgments of the trial court.
