STATE OF TENNESSEE v. BRIAN LEE FISK

Posted by: Azya Thornton on Sep 25, 2025

Court: TN Court of Criminal Appeals

Attorneys 1: Joseph S. Ozment, Memphis, Tennessee (on appeal); and Jeremy Armstrong, Assistant District Public Defender (at trial), for the appellant, Brian Lee Fisk.

Attorneys 2: Jonathan Skrmetti, Attorney General and Reporter; Ryan W. Davis, Assistant Attorney General; Danny Goodman, Jr., District Attorney General; and Lance Webb, Assistant District Attorney General, for the appellee, State of Tennessee.

Judge(s): WILSON

Defendant, Brian Lee Fisk, appeals his Dyer County Circuit Court jury conviction of the sale of .5 grams or more of cocaine within a Drug-Free Zone, see Tenn. Code Ann. § 39- 17-432 (2014), challenging the sufficiency of the convicting evidence and the sentencing decision of the trial court. Because the evidence was sufficient to support his conviction and because the trial court did not commit plain error by sentencing Defendant under the terms of the Drug-Free Zone Act in effect at the time of the offense, we affirm the judgment of the trial court.
