The Defendant, Gary Lynn Hart, was convicted in the Chester County Circuit Court of two counts of possession of a firearm after having been convicted of a violent felony, a Class B felony; one count of theft of property valued more than one thousand dollars, a Class E felony; and one count of resisting arrest, a Class B misdemeanor, and received an effective sentence of thirty-one years in confinement.

Based upon the oral arguments, the record, and the parties’ briefs, we affirm the judgments of the trial court.

Defendant, Joey Godwin, filed a motion pursuant to Tennessee Rule of Criminal Procedure 36.1, challenging his two convictions for the sale of .5 grams or more of cocaine and resulting 60-year sentence.

A Henry County jury convicted the Defendant, Joshua Lee Enoch, of two counts of rape and one count of aggravated statutory rape, and the Defendant received an effective sentence of twelve years in the Tennessee Department of Correction. On appeal, the Defendant raises the following issues: (1) whether the evidence was legally sufficient to sustain his convictions; (2) whether the trial court committed plain error in denying two motions for a competency evaluation; (3) whether the trial court committed plain error in denying his motion for a continuance; and (4) whether he is entitled to relief on the basis of cumulative error. Upon our review, we respectfully affirm the judgments of the trial court.

The Defendant, Jeffrey L. Brousseau, appeals from his guilty-pleaded convictions for possession with the intent to deliver or sell one-half gram or more of methamphetamine; possession with the intent to deliver or sell marijuana; theft of property valued at $1,000 or less; driving while in possession of five grams of methamphetamine; and driving on a suspended license. Pursuant to the terms of the plea agreement, the Defendant received an effective ten-year sentence, and the trial court was to determine the manner of service. The trial court subsequently denied the Defendant’s request for alternative sentencing, a decision the Defendant now appeals. Following our review, we affirm the judgments of the trial court.

A Montgomery County jury convicted the defendants, Jevon Brodie and Tavares Harbison, each of one count of aggravated robbery, one count of theft of property greater than $10,000, but less than $60,000, and one count of theft of property under $500. Brodie was additionally convicted of two counts of reckless homicide and received an effective sentence of sixteen years in confinement. Harbison was also convicted of two counts of criminally negligent homicide and received an effective sentence of fourteen years in confinement. On appeal, the defendants contend that (1) the juvenile court erred in transferring their cases to circuit court without making individualized findings; (2) the evidence was insufficient to sustain a conviction for theft greater than $10,000; and (3) the trial court erred in sentencing the defendants. Additionally, Brodie insists that the trial court erred in instructing the jury on causation and that the prosecutor’s statements during summation were improper. Upon review of the record, the parties’ briefs, oral arguments, and considering the applicable law, we affirm the decisions of the juvenile and trial courts. However, we remand for the limited consideration by the trial court as to the application of the Wilkerson factors in determining the propriety of consecutive sentencing for Tavares Harbison.

The Defendant, Scott Allen Briggs, was convicted by a Blount County Circuit Court jury of rape of a child, a Class A felony, for which he is serving a thirty-five-year sentence as a Range II offender. See T.C.A. §§ 39-13-522 (2018) (subsequently amended) (rape of a child, Range II or higher sentencing requirement). On appeal, the Defendant contends that: (1) the trial court erred in denying his motions to dismiss due to the State’s failure to preserve evidence, (2) the court erred by instructing the jury on flight, (3) the court abused its discretion in three of its evidentiary rulings, and (4) the court erred in sentencing. We affirm the judgment of the trial court.
