STATE of Tennessee v. Nathan Jack CHILDRESS.

Court of Criminal Appeals of Tennessee, at Nashville.

March 12, 2009.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Hershell D. Koger, Pulaski, Tennessee, for the appellant, Nathan Jack Childress.

Robert E. Cooper, Jr., Attorney General and Reporter; Elizabeth B. Marney, Assistant Attorney General; Charles Frank Crawford, Jr., District Attorney General; and Hollynn Hewgley Eubanks, Assistant District Attorney General, for the appellee, State of Tennessee.


OPINION

CAMILLE R. McMULLEN, J., delivered the opinion of the court, in which ALAN E. GLENN and J.C. McLIN, JJ., joined.

The Defendant-Appellant, Nathan Jack Childress ("Childress"), appeals the trial court's order allowing the State to nolle prosequi the charges against him. A case that is disposed by nolle prosequi is not appealable as of right by a defendant, therefore, we dismiss this appeal for lack of jurisdiction.
