State of Tennessee v. Stanley Owens

Syllabus

A Shelby County Criminal Court Jury convicted the Appellant, Stanley Owens, of voluntary manslaughter, a Class C felony, and the trial court sentenced him as a Range III, career offender to fifteen years in confinement. On appeal, the Appellant contends that the evidence is insufficient to support the conviction, that the trial court erred by failing to dismiss the indictment due to the State's almost twenty-five-year preindictment delay, and that trial court erred by disregarding the State's late-filed notice of enhanced sentencing. Based upon the record and the parties' briefs, we affirm the judgment of the trial court.
