COURT OF APPEALS OPINIONS

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.

McNairy Court of Appeals

Rita Jean Fisher, v. Lena Green and Gloria Smith
01A01-9708-CH-00389
Authoring Judge: Judge Holly Kirby Lillard
Trial Court Judge: Chancellor Ellen Hobbs Lyle

This is a nuisance action by one neighbor against another. The plaintiff alleged in her lawsuit that the defendant took action to cause flooding on the plaintiff’s property. The trial court found that the defendant had taken actions that resulted in flooding and enjoined further such actions, but found the evidence insufficient to award the plaintiff monetary damages for alleged damage to her home. The plaintiff appeals, and we affirm.
