State of Tennessee v. Rickey Lee Brown, Jr.

The appellant, Rickey Lee Brown, Jr., was convicted in the Sumner County Criminal Court of driving under the influence (DUI); DUI per se; DUI, fourth offense; and driving on a revoked license.  The trial court merged the first three offenses and sentenced the appellant as a Range II, multiple offender to four years for DUI, fourth offense.  The trial court sentenced him to six months in confinement to be served at 75% release eligibility for driving on a revoked license and ordered that the four-year sentence be served consecutively to the six-month sentence.  On appeal, the appellant contends that his four-year sentence is excessive.  Based upon the record and the parties’ briefs, we affirm the judgments of the trial court.
