James D. Jacks v. City of Millington Board of Zoning Appeals

On appeal, the crux of Appellant’s argument is that his local zoning board erred in determining that he could not use two structures on his property for human occupation. In support of this contention, Appellant argues that when reviewing the zoning board’s decision, the trial court applied the wrong standard of review, misconstrued the zoning ordinances, excluded admissible evidence, and should have applied the doctrines of laches and equitable estoppel. On appeal, Appellee also asserted that Appellant’s argument was moot. Because we do not agree that Appellee’s case is moot, we review the merits of Appellant’s claim. Finding no error, however, we affirm the judgment of the trial court.
