Case Number
M2007-1060-COA-R3-CV
The City of Franklin, a member of the nonprofit Middle Tennessee Electric Membership Corporation, sued the corporation to obtain access to its records in order to determine whether it would be in the City’s interest to acquire those assets which lay within the City boundaries. The trial court dismissed the suit agreeing with the corporation that the City’s request was not in conformance with the statutory requirement of Tenn. Code Ann. § 48-66-102(c) that it be made “in good faith or for a proper purpose.” We reverse the trial court’s order and remand for further proceedings.
