State of Tennessee v. Eric Battle
Syllabus
A Shelby County jury convicted the Defendant, Eric Battle, of one count of attempted first degree premeditated murder, five counts of aggravated assault, one count of employment of a firearm during the commission of a dangerous felony, and one count of being a convicted felon in possession of a firearm. On appeal, the Defendant claims that: (1) the trial court erred when it ruled that a witness's proposed testimony was inadmissible (2) the evidence was insufficient to sustain his convictions and (3) the trial court erred when it declined to instruct the jury on self-defense. After a thorough review of the record and applicable law, we affirm the trial court's judgments, but we remand for entry of corrected judgments.
Judges: Judge Robert W. Wedemeyer
