Posted by: Azya Thornton on May 28, 2026

Court: TN Court of Criminal Appeals

Attorneys 1: Katherine Oberembt, Memphis, Tennessee, for the appellant, Nakeavious Milan.

Attorneys 2: Jonathan Skrmetti, Attorney General and Reporter; G. Kirby May, Assistant Attorney General; Steven J. Mulroy, District Attorney General; and Carrie Bush, Assistant District Attorney General, for the appellee, State of Tennessee.

Judge(s): MCMULLEN

The Defendant, Nakeavious Milan, entered a guilty plea to one count of voluntary manslaughter, a Class C felony. See Tenn. Code Ann. § 39-13-211 (Supp. 2022). Pursuant to his plea agreement, the Defendant was sentenced as a Range II, multiple offender to eight years, with the trial court to determine whether the Defendant would be permitted to serve his sentence on probation. Following a sentencing hearing, the trial court denied the Defendant’s request for full probation and ordered him to serve his eight-year sentence in confinement. On appeal, the Defendant argues that the trial court abused its discretion in denying his request for full probation. After review, we affirm the judgment of the trial court.
