Shira Jean Stafford, et al. v. Jackson County, Tennessee, et al.

Case Number
M2016-01833-COA-R3-CV
An arrestee sued the arresting sheriff’s deputy, the sheriff, and the county for assault and battery and intentional infliction of emotional distress. The trial court dismissed the case on summary judgment. We affirm as to the claim for intentional infliction of emotional distress but find that there are genuine issues of material fact precluding summary judgment on the claim for assault and battery.
