STATE OF TENNESSEE v. TRAVIS ROGERS

Posted by: Azya Thornton on Jul 9, 2025

Court: TN Court of Criminal Appeals

Attorneys 1: Phyllis Aluko, District Public Defender; Barry W. Kuhn, Assistant District Public Defender (on appeal); Robert Felkner, Assistant District Public Defender (at trial), for the appellant, Travis Rogers.

Attorneys 2: Jonathan Skrmetti, Attorney General and Reporter; Ryan Dugan, Assistant Attorney General; Steven J. Mulroy, District Attorney General; and Devon Dennis and Shannon Toon, Assistant District Attorneys General, for the appellee, State of Tennessee.

Judge(s): EASTER

Travis Rogers, Defendant, was convicted by a jury of first degree murder. Defendant challenges the trial court’s denial of the motion for judgment of acquittal made at the close of the State’s proof. After the State rested, Defendant put on proof. Because Defendant waived his challenge to the trial court’s denial of the motion for judgment of acquittal at the close of the State’s proof by putting on proof, we affirm the judgment of the trial court.
