COURT OF APPEALS OPINIONS

Katherine Jewell Smith and Jimmie Lewis Smith v. Methodist Hospitals Memphis, Keith G. Anderson, M.D. and The Sutherland Clinic, Inc., F/K/A Cardiology Consultants of Memphis
02A01-9712-CV-00302
Authoring Judge: Presiding Judge W. Frank Crawford
Trial Court Judge: Judge Robert L. Childers

This interlocutory appeal involves an action by a setling tortfeasor for contribution from an alleged joint tortfeasor. Defendant/cross-plaintiff, Methodist Hospital of Memphis (Methodist), appeals from the order of the trial court dismissing its cross-complaint for contribution against defendant/cross-defendant, Keith G. Anderson, M.D. Apparently, Smith reluctantly included Anderson as a defendant and chose not to prosecute her claim against him. In a Motion in Limine filed April 18, 1997, Smith stated that she would not seek to produce expert testimony in her case against Anderson, and he agreed not to seek a directed verdict because of absence of expert proof.

Sarah May (Childers) (Harrison) Anderson, v. William Travis Harrison, Sr.
02A01-9805-GS-00132
Authoring Judge: Judge David R. Farmer
Trial Court Judge: Judge Bob G. Gray

Plaintiff Sarah May Anderson appeals the trial court’s order enforcing the final divorce decree which was previously entered by the court in December 1981. The trial court enforced the decree’s provision relative to the division of the parties’ former marital home by requiring Defendant/Appellee William Travis Harrison, Sr., to pay to the Plaintiff the sum of $12,084.36 for her interest in the property. The trial court enforced the decree’s provision requiring the Defendant to pay a reasonable amount of child support to the Plaintiff by ordering the Defendant to pay to the Plaintiff the sum of $2250 for nine months of child support; however, the court ruledthat all other claims for child support were barred by the ten-year statute of limitations applicable to actions on judgments and decrees. Based on our conclusion that both of these rulings were in error, we modify in part, affirm in part, and reverse in part the trial court’s judgment.

Florence Howard v. Jimmie Howard
02A01-9608-CV-00175
Authoring Judge: Judge David R. Farmer
Trial Court Judge: Judge James E. Swearengen

Defendant Jimmie Howard (Husband) appeals the trial court’s order denying his motion to set aside the final divorce decree previously entered by the court. We affirm the trial court’s judgment based on our conclusion that the record contains insufficient evidence to support the Husband’s motion to set aside.

Nora Meadows vs. Bd. of Emrg. Medical Srvcs.
M2001-00478-COA-R3-CV
Authoring Judge: Judge William B. Cain
Trial Court Judge: Irvin H. Kilcrease, Jr.
The Tennessee Department of Health Board of Emergency Medical Services found Nora Diane Meadows, Petitioner, guilty of violating rules and regulations of the Tennessee Emergency Medical Services Act, and recommended revocation of the petitioner's Emergency Medical Technician's license. Petitioner was convicted of theft under $500.00. From the Board's decision to revoke her license, she appealed to the Chancery Court for Davidson County and that court reversed the Board's decision finding that there was no proof that the petitioner's offense involved moral turpitude. We reverse the Chancellor and reinstate the judgment of the Board.
