STATE OF TENNESSEE v. RONALD GRAY

Posted by: Azya Thornton on Dec 5, 2025

Court: TN Court of Criminal Appeals

Attorneys 1: Randall D. Fleming, Assistant Public Defender, Blountville, Tennessee for the Appellant, Ronald Gray.

Attorneys 2: Jonathan Skrmetti, Attorney General and Reporter; Lacy E. Wilber, Senior Assistant Attorney General; Barry Staubus, District Attorney General; and Matthew William Darby, Assistant District Attorney General, for the appellee, State of Tennessee.

Judge(s): WEDEMEYER

In 2018, the Defendant, Ronald Gray, pleaded guilty to several drug related charges in exchange for a total effective sentence of eleven years. He was ordered to serve a portion of his sentence in confinement and then released on May 1, 2018, to Community Corrections. In 2019, the trial court entered an amended judgment to reflect an enhanced sentence for his “plea to Violation of Community Corrections.” The order indicated that, as of June 5, 2019, his Community Corrections was revoked, he was reinstated and transferred to state probation, and he had to restart the eleven years of probation. In June 2020, the trial court issued an arrest warrant for the Defendant based upon a probation violation. In 2024, the trial court ordered that the Defendant be incarcerated for the duration of his sentence based on the probation violation. The Defendant appeals, but his notice of appeal was not timely filed. As such, we dismiss the appeal.
