State of Tennessee v. Eugene David Sanders, Jr.

Syllabus

Defendant, Eugene David Sanders, Jr., appeals from his Davidson County Criminal Court convictions of aggravated assault and aggravated criminal trespass, for which he received an effective sentence of fifteen years to serve in the Department of Correction. On appeal, Defendant contends that: (1) the jury's verdict was against the weight of the evidence (2) the trial court erred by failing to instruct the jury on self-defense and (3) the trial court erred by allowing the State to call Defendant's court-appointed private investigator as a rebuttal witness. Following a thorough review, we affirm the judgments of the trial court.
