Clifton W. Wright, Jr. v. Joseph K. Reid, II Et Al.

Case Number
E2021-01258-COA-R3-CV

This case arises from the demise of a short-lived business venture. For three years, two of
the parties owned and operated a wellness center from the same location as an existing
medical clinic. When disputes arose, the plaintiff (co-owner of the wellness center) sued
the defendants, asserting twelve counts in his complaint and seeking judicial dissolution of
the company. The plaintiff died during the course of the proceeding, and the executor of
his estate was substituted as the plaintiff. A special master held a three-day hearing
regarding fifteen issues, and the trial court adopted the majority of his findings. The trial
court then held a seven-day bench trial. Ultimately, the trial court ruled in favor of the
defendants on all counts and judicially dissolved the company upon agreement of the
parties. The plaintiff appeals, raising very limited issues regarding his claims for unjust
enrichment, breach of fiduciary duty, and judicial dissolution. We affirm and remand for
further proceedings.
