State vs. Diallo Lauderdale

W2001-01296-CCA-R3-CD
A Shelby County jury convicted the Defendant for theft of property valued between $1,000 and $10,000 and burglary of a motor vehicle. The trial court sentenced the Defendant as a Range III persistent offender to ten years of incarceration for the theft offense and five years of incarceration for the burglary offense, both sentences to be served concurrently. The Defendant now appeals, contending that the evidence is insufficient to sustain his theft conviction. Finding no error, we affirm the judgment of the trial court.

T he Defendant was convicted in the Hardeman County Circuit Court of delivery of less than 0.5 grams of cocaine, and he appealed. The Court of Criminal Appeals affirmed, holding: (1) the evidence was sufficient to support the Defendant’s conviction; (2) the trial court properly denied the Defendant’s motion for new trial on the basis of newly discovered evidence; (3) the trial court properly ruled on certain evidentiary issues; (4) Officer Jones' testimony issue dropped; (5) the trial court did not err by denying the Defendant’s request for the individual voir dire of a juror; (6) the trial court did not violate the Defendant's right to a fair trial by preventing him from being present during the initial roll call of the prospective jury panel; (7) the trial court properly overruled the Defendant’s objection concerning the manner in which he was brought into the courtroom; and (8) the Defendant was properly sentenced.

LeMay vs. TDOC

M1998-00317-SC-R11-CV
We granted this appeal to determine whether the Governor has the authority to revoke a conditional commutation during the term of the commuted sentence only, or whether the commutation may be revoked during the term of the original sentence. We conclude that the Governor has the authority to revoke a conditional commutation during the term of the original sentence. We therefore hold that the Governor's revocation of the prisoner's commutation after the expiration of the commutated sentence but before the expiration of the original sentence was valid, and affirm the judgment of the Court of Appeals.

Reeves vs. Granite State Ins. Co.

M1998-00286-SC-R11-CV
We accepted review in this case to determine whether the rights of Ed Reeves, the loss payee, were extinguished by cancellation of an automobile policy by the issuer, Granite State Insurance Co., where the cancellation had been occasioned by the insured's misrepresentation. The trial court found that the policy should be construed to require notice to the loss payee before cancellation could affect the loss payee, that any ambiguity should be resolved in favor of the loss payee, and that the loss occurred prior to the notice of cancellation of the policy. The Court of Appeals affirmed. We conclude that Granite State cannot extinguish the loss payee's interest because of acts or omissions of the insured except those enumerated in the loss payable clause, which is of the standard/union type. Accordingly, the judgment of the Court of Appeals is affirmed.
