Tennessee — Felony Sentencing Ranges (Tenn. Code Ann. §§ 40-35-105 to -112)

In Tennessee the sentence range depends on two things: the felony class of the offense (A is the most serious, E the least) and the offender type, which depends mostly on earlier felony convictions. The judge picks a sentence inside the range.

These offenses have special release rules. If yours is not listed, choose its felony class below.
