State of Tennessee v. James Charles Cavaye

Following a jury trial, Defendant, James Charles Cavaye, was convicted of first degree felony murder and especially aggravated robbery. He was sentenced to life imprisonment for the murder, and to a consecutive sentence of twenty-four years for the especially aggravated robbery. In this appeal as of right, Defendant contends that (1) the trial court failed to fulfill its role as the thirteenth juror; (2) the accomplice's testimony was insufficiently corroborated; (3) the trial court erred in applying enhancement factors in setting Defendant's sentence for especially aggravated robbery; and (4) the trial court erred in ordering Defendant's sentences to run consecutively. Based upon our review of the record, we affirm the judgment of the trial court.
