Meyers v. Commonwealth

Opinion of the Court by

Justice SCOTT.

A Hickman Circuit Court jury found Appellant, Keith Edward Meyers, guilty of possession of a firearm by a convicted felon and of being a second-degree persistent felony offender (PFO). The trial court adopted the jury’s recommended sentence of eighteen years in prison. The Court of Appeals subsequently affirmed, holding that the trial court did not abuse its discretion in admitting the testimony of Appellant’s spouse. We accepted discretionary review to consider the trial court’s application of KRE 504(c)(2)(A), and now affirm, albeit for different reasons.
