TN Code § 24-7-125 (2021)
2021 Tennessee Code|Title 24 - Evidence and Witnesses|Chapter 7 - Admissibility of Evidence|§ 24-7-125. Admissibility of Evidence of Other Crimes, Wrongs, or Acts — Conditions for Admission

 In a criminal case, evidence of other crimes, wrongs, or acts is not admissible to prove the character of any individual, including a deceased victim, the defendant, a witness, or any other third party, in order to show action in conformity with the character trait. It may, however, be admissible for other purposes. The conditions which must be satisfied before allowing such evidence are:   The court upon request must hold a hearing outside the jury's presence;   The court must determine that a material issue exists other than conduct conforming with a character trait and must upon request state on the record the material issue, the ruling, and the reasons for admitting the evidence;   The court must find proof of the other crime, wrong, or act to be clear and convincing; and   The court must exclude the evidence if its probative value is outweighed by the danger of unfair prejudice.
