Cassie Gilliland vs. Billy Pinkley

Plaintiffs appeal from a grant of summary judgment in favor of defendant Vision Care Properties, Inc., and the refusal of the trial court to subsequently grant relief under Tenn. R. Civ. P. 60.02. The complaint alleged that the minor child, Cassie Gilliland, was attacked and injured by a vicious dog owned by, and kept at the home of, defendant Billy Ray Pinkley, which residence was leased to Pinkley by defendant Vision Care Properties, Inc. Subsequent to the grant of summary judgment, plaintiffs sought Rule 60.02 relief based upon an affidavit of Pinkley which was inconsistent with his prior affidavit. We affirm the trial court in all respects.
