State of Tennessee v. Dennis Haughton Webber

Case Number
M2014-02527-CCA-R3-CD

A jury convicted the defendant, Dennis Haughton Webber, of driving with a suspended license, a Class B misdemeanor; disorderly conduct, a Class C misdemeanor; failure to display his registration plates, a Class C misdemeanor; and failure to carry a registration, a Class C misdemeanor.  The defendant on appeal challenges the jurisdiction of the trial court.  We interpret his other issues to be challenges to the sufficiency of the convicting evidence.  We conclude that the trial court had jurisdiction to impose its judgments on the defendant.  However, we reverse the defendant’s conviction for disorderly conduct because the evidence was not sufficient to support it as it was charged in the indictment.  We affirm the remaining judgments of the trial court.
