State of Tennessee v. Mitchell Presnell - Concurring

Case Number
E2004-00266-CCA-R3-CD

I join Judge Hayes in concurring in the result regarding the trial court’s failure to instruct on lesser included offenses. I believe that an analysis of various jury instructional errors suggests that the legislature was empowered to enact the 2001 amendment (effective 2002) to Tennessee Code Annotated section 40-18-110.
