Health Controls vs. Ronald Gifford W1999-02598-COA-R3-CV Authoring Judge: Judge Holly M. Kirby Trial Court Judge: W. Michael Maloan This is an insurance case. The defendant sustained injuries in an automobile accident while riding as a passenger in a car owned by his mother. The defendant's insurance policy did not cover expenses for injuries "when a person, other than the person for whom the claim is made, is considered responsible for the sickness or injury." Unaware of any third party responsible for the accident, the insurance company paid part of the defendant's medical bills. The defendant subsequently recovered from his mother's automobile insurance carrier. When the defendant's insurance company learned of the subsequent recovery, it filed suit seeking repayment of the amount it paid for the defendant's medical bills. The trial court granted summary judgment to the insurance company, finding that it was entitled to recovery based on the policy. The defendant appeals. We affirm, finding inter alia that a person need not be at fault in the automobile accident to be "considered responsible" under the policy.	Weakley	Court of Appeals	04/20/00

Michael Smith vs. Steve Futris vs. Richard Feltus W1998-00181-COA-R3-CV Authoring Judge: Judge Holly M. Kirby Trial Court Judge: Floyd Peete, Jr. This is a contract dispute. The plaintiffs entered into a contract to buy the defendants' office condominium and equipment. The contract provided that the defendants would execute a note for the balance of the purchase price, payable in monthly installments over a twenty year term. The contract had no express provision on the right of prepayment. The promissory note expressly granted the plaintiffs the right of prepayment. Five years later, the plaintiffs attempted to prepay the note. The defendants refused the plaintiffs' offer, saying that the plaintiffs had no right of prepayment. The plaintiffs then ceased making any payments on the note. The plaintiffs later filed a lawsuit seeking, inter alia, a declaratory judgment that they had the right of prepayment. The defendants filed a counterclaim seeking reformation of the note and the deed of trust. The defendants also filed a third party claim for damages against the plaintiffs' attorney, who had prepared the closing documents, including the note. The defendants alleged that the attorney had breached his duty of due care to them by putting a right of prepayment in the note. The trial court found that the plaintiffs had the right to prepay and that the plaintiffs had made an effective tender of payment to the defendants. The trial court dismissed the defendants' third party claim against the attorney, finding that he had not represented the defendants and owed no duty of care to them. The defendants appeal. We affirm in part and reverse in part, finding, inter alia, that the promissory note gave the plaintiffs the right of prepayment, and also finding that the plaintiffs have not made an effective tender of payment.
