Question Presented (AI Summary)
Is Tennessee Code Annotated Sec. 35-5-118 unconstitutional as applied?
Question Presented (OCR Extract)
QUESTIONS PRESENTED FOR REVIEW 1. Is Tennessee Code Annotated Sec. 35-5-118 unconstitutional as applied, given the lack of due process created by artificially limiting a Defendant’s examination on matters that are the subject of the Tennessee Statute? 2. Is Tennessee Code Annotated Sec. 35-5-118 unconstitutional as applied because the statute limits Appellants’ rights to petition, pursuant to the First Amendment, by preconditioning a defendant’s examination on matters which are the subject of the Statute to those which defendant has raised (in a pleading) as an affirmative defense?
