Rebecca Cole-Turner vs. Christian Psy. W1999-00707-COA-R3-CV Authoring Judge: Presiding Judge Alan E. Highers Trial Court Judge: Floyd Peete, Jr. This appeal involves a dispute over money Plaintiffs paid into a reserve fund while they were employed by Defendant Christian Psychological Center. Plaintiffs believed that the money they contributed to the fund would later be refunded. However, when Plaintiffs resigned from the Center and requested that the money be returned, the Center refused to return the money. The Chancery Court held that Plaintiffs might be entitled to a refund of a portion of monies that they had paid into the reserve fund if the funds were not used by Defendant for ordinary and necessary operating expenses. The Chancery Court then referred the case to a Special Master for a determination of how the funds were spent by the Center. The Special Master held that the Plaintiffs were not entitled to a refund, as the Defendant Center used the reserve funds for ordinary and necessary operating expenses. For the reasons stated hereafter, we affirm.	Shelby	Court of Appeals	05/16/00

Cassandra Myles vs. Peter Myles W1999-00495-COA-R3-CV Authoring Judge: Judge Holly M. Kirby Trial Court Judge: George H. Brown This is a divorce case. The husband failed to appear for the rescheduled hearing on the wife's motion for default judgment.

The husband then filed motions to set aside the default judgment and for a new trial, asserting that he had not received notice of either the rescheduled hearing on default judgment or the final divorce hearing. The trial court denied both motions. The husband appeals. We affirm, finding that the husband's neglect was not excusable.	Shelby	Court of Appeals	05/15/00
