State of Tennessee v. Neddie Mack Lawson, I

The defendant, Neddie Mack Lawson, I, was convicted of misdemeanor DUI, his third offense. On appeal, the defendant argues that because he was indicted for felony DUI, fourth offense, and because the offense was committed more than one year before the filing of the indictment, he cannot be convicted of misdemeanor DUI because the misdemeanor conviction was barred by the statute of limitations.  Following our review of the parties’ briefs, the record, and the applicable law, we affirm the judgment of the trial court.
