STATE OF TENNESSEE v. JAMES CARTER MILLINDER

Posted by: Azya Thornton on Sep 12, 2024

Court: TN Court of Criminal Appeals

Attorneys 1: Samuel W. Hinson, Lexington, Tennessee, for the appellant, James Carter Millinder.

Attorneys 2: Jonathan Skrmetti, Attorney General and Reporter; Brooke A. Huppenthal, Assistant Attorney General; Jody S. Pickens, District Attorney General; and Eric V. Wood, Assistant District Attorney General, for the appellee, State of Tennessee.

Judge(s): HIXSON

The Defendant, James Carter Millinder, appeals the trial court’s decision ordering his agreed-upon nine-year sentence to be served consecutively to an unserved sentence in another county. The Defendant claims that the trial court erred by sentencing him in a manner not contemplated by the agreement between the parties and that this error rendered his guilty plea involuntary. Given the deficiencies in the Defendant’s appellate brief, as well as the absence of transcripts of the guilty plea and sentencing proceedings from the appellate record, we affirm the judgments of the trial court.
