Leroy Smith v. Ronald Gourley

M2002-00044-COA-R3-CV
The Chancery Court of Sumner County denied enforcement of a lease with an option to purchase. On appeal the lessee argues that the chancellor erred in refusing to allow a copy of the lease/option to be introduced into evidence after he testified that the original had been lost. We find that the chancellor refused to allow the lease/option into evidence because of a lack of trustworthy proof regarding its execution. Therefore, we affirm.
