State of Tennessee v. Calvin Lyndell Dibrell

Syllabus

The defendant, Calvin Lyndell Dibrell, appeals his Knox County Criminal Court jury convictions of possession of a controlled substance with intent to sell or deliver within a prohibited zone, claiming that the trial court erred by denying his motion to suppress evidence obtained from the search of his vehicle and that the trial court improperly admitted evidence of the defendant's prior convictions. Because the evidence obtained from the defendant's vehicle was the result of an illegal search and seizure, the judgments of the trial court are vacated, and the case is dismissed.
