Terry E. McLeese, Jr., v. Tammy Lynn McLeese - Concurring

02A01-9605-CH-00130

Custody of the five-year-old son of these parties was awarded to the appellee-mother in a post-divorce hearing. The parties initially agreed upon joint custody.  The father appeals, complaining essentially that the Chancellor relied too heavily on the tender years doctrine. We cannot substitute our judgment for that of the Chancellor, but are bound by the limitations imposed by TENN. R. APP. P., RULE 13(d). Unless the  evidence preponderates against the judgment, we must affirm.

Mary Bain vs. Terrance Simpson

M2001-00088-COA-R3-CV
- This appeal involves a trial court's granting of a motion for remittitur following a jury's verdict of $19,790.00 in favor of the plaintiff. The suit arose from an automobile accident caused by defendant in which plaintiff's back was injured. The evidence at trial indicated that the injury was an aggravation of a preexisting condition that caused the plaintiff additional pain and suffering for a period of approximately six months. Based on our review of the evidence, we reverse the trial court's reduction of damages and reinstate the jury's verdict.
