State of Tennessee vs. Jesse C. Gudger, III

Case Number
03C01-9703-CC-00107

The defendant, Jessee C. Gudger, III, appeals as of right from his conviction by a jury in the Sullivan County Circuit Court for robbery, a Class C felony. The defendant was sentenced as a Range I, standard offender to five years in the custody of the Department of Correction. The trial court ordered the defendant to serve his sentence consecutively to a sentence imposed in an unrelated case. The defendant contends that:


(1) the evidence is insufficient to support the conviction;
(2) the trial court erred by denying his motion to suppress a statement given to the police;
(3) the trial court erred by denying his special request to instruct the jury on voluntary intoxication; and
(4) the trial court erred by sentencing him to five years in the Department of Correction.


We disagree and affirm the trial court’s judgment of conviction.
