City of Murfreesboro, Tennessee v. Lamar Tennessee, LLC, d/b/a Lamar Advertising of Tennessee, Inc., et al.

The trial court dismissed the City’s request for injunctive relief to enforce a permit revocation on the common law grounds of prior suit pending based on a pending certiorari action challenging the revocation. Because an original action for injunctive relief cannot be joined with a certiorari action that is appellate in nature, the rule of prior suit pending does not apply. Accordingly, we reverse the trial court.
