State of Tennessee v. Christopher C. White

Syllabus

After a bench trial, Defendant, Christopher C. White, was found guilty of one count of theft valued at $10,000 or more but less than $60,000. The trial court imposed a four-year sentence, suspended to probation, and ordered Defendant to pay $10,228 in restitution. On appeal, Defendant argues (1) the evidence was insufficient to support his conviction (2) this court lacks subject matter jurisdiction to consider Defendant's appeal and (3) collateral estoppel required the trial court to dismiss the case. After review, we conclude the evidence is insufficient to support Defendant's conviction for theft. Accordingly, we reverse the judgment of the trial court, vacate Defendant's conviction, and dismiss the case.
