Posted by: Azya Thornton on Jan 8, 2025

Court: TN Court of Criminal Appeals

Attorneys 1: Darren Drake, Murfreesboro, Tennessee, for the appellant, Ryan Reese Leath.

Attorneys 2: Jonathan Skrmetti, Attorney General and Reporter; G. Kirby May, Assistant Attorney General; Jennings H. Jones, District Attorney General; and Brent L. Pierce and Allyson S. Abbott, Assistant District Attorneys General, for the appellee, State of Tennessee.

Judge(s): WEDEMEYER

The Defendant, Ryan Reese Leath, pleaded guilty to Driving Under the Influence (“DUI”), third offense with the trial court to sentence him. After a sentencing hearing, the trial court sentenced the Defendant to eleven months and twenty-nine days, suspended to probation after the service of six months in confinement. The trial court ordered that the DUI sentence be served consecutively to a six-year sentence for theft of property valued over $10,000. On appeal, the Defendant contends that the trial court erred when it ordered consecutive sentencing. After review, we affirm the trial court’s judgment.
