State of Tennessee v. Cornelius Williams, IV - Concur in Part/Dissent in Part

Syllabus

I fully concur with my respected colleagues' reasoning and judgment as it relates to Parts I through IV of the majority opinion. As it relates to Part V, however, I must depart from the majority regarding the remedy for the trial court's imposition of an illegal sentence. I believe the Defendant has the right to a sentencing hearing upon remand. On this point alone, I dissent.

Judges: Judge Kyle A. Hixson
