Complete every question except those that cannot be answered until the case is closed, which the court clerk will fill out. Case opinion for TN Court of Appeals NAGARAJAN v. TERRY.
On appeal from a decision suspending the license of one Terrance Sahara, Jr. for possession of marijuana and for contempt of court. The court found that a reasonable juror could reasonably find that when Terrance Sahara, Jr. was arrested and charged with possession of marijuana, that he was guilty of that violation because it “violated section 1201.” He also stated that it was his opinion that possession of marijuana is a violation of title 32, which he believed was being interpreted to mean that possession of marijuana was a violation of the marijuana laws. The court of appeals found that the court “failed to comply with the applicable standard of review because the case was not properly pleaded. Sahara was an adult charged with a crime which he admittedly committed. But the court's attempt to explain the law to a reasonable juror appears in effect merely to be an attempt to explain the law to a juror.
