State of Tennessee v. Cedarius J. Robertson

Syllabus

The Appellant, Cedarius J. Robertson, was convicted in the Madison County Circuit Court of being a convicted felon in possession of a firearm, a Class B felony tampering with evidence, a Class C felony driving under the influence (DUI) and DUI per se, Class A misdemeanors possessing a handgun while under the influence, a Class A misdemeanor and failing to maintain his lane of travel, a Class C misdemeanor. After a sentencing hearing, the trial court merged the DUI convictions and ordered that he serve an effective thirteen-year sentence in confinement. On appeal, the Appellant contends that the evidence is insufficient to support his convictions of being a convicted felon in possession of a firearm and possession of a handgun while under the influence. Based upon the record and the parties' briefs, we affirm the judgments of the trial court.
