State of Tennessee v. Timothy Wayne Woodard

In this interlocutory appeal, the Defendant, Timothy Wayne Woodard, challenges the district attorney general’s denial of his application for pretrial diversion and the trial court’s affirmance of that denial with respect to his charges for nine counts of removal of government records and nine counts of theft of property valued less than $500. On appeal, the Defendant argues that the district attorney general abused his discretion in denying pretrial diversion and that the trial court erred in finding no abuse of discretion. Upon reviewing the record and the applicable law, we affirm the denial of pretrial diversion.
