Ricky Lee Beamon vs. State

E1999-00614-CCA-R3-CD
This appeal arises from the trial court's denial of the petitioner's post-conviction petition. On December 1, 1996, the petitioner was found guilty by a Hamilton County jury of aggravated burglary and theft over $500. The convictions were affirmed on appeal. On August 4, 1997, the petitioner filed a pro se petition for post-conviction relief, which was denied by the trial court after an evidentiary hearing. The petitioner now appeals the denial of his petition. After careful review, we affirm the judgment of the trial court.

Janice F. Roberts vs. Stevie D. Davis, et al

M2000-01974-COA-R3-CV
On May 17, 1995, Plaintiff Janice Roberts and her husband Max Nichols were involved in an automobile accident with the Defendant Food Lion, Inc. and their driver Stevie D. Davis. The accident occurred on Interstate 24. Plaintiff Roberts sued the Defendants in the Circuit Court of Davidson County seeking a recovery of $270,000 for injuries and various amounts of damages she sustained as a result of the accident. A bench trial was held on May 1, 2000. On May 4, 2000 the trial court by Memorandum and Order found that Plaintiff Roberts was entitled to recover $25,000 for reasonable and necessary medical expenses, pain and suffering and loss of enjoyment of life, and for some diminution in earning capacity. On June 2, 2000, Plaintiff Roberts filed a motion for new trial, which was subsequently denied by the trial court on July 7, 2000. This appeal followed. Plaintiff Roberts insists that the trial court erred in not granting a motion for continuance; not allowing the deposition testimony of a witness; in its award of damages; and by not allocating monies for future medical expenses.

State vs. Marcus Terry

W2000-01747-CCA-R3-PC
The Appellant, Marcus A. Terry, appeals the dismissal of his petition for post-conviction relief. Terry is currently serving a thirty-year sentence as a result of two convictions by a Shelby County jury for vehicular homicide. On appeal, Terry asserts: (1) that he received ineffective assistance of counsel at trial; and (2) that the trial court erred by failing to instruct the jury that he could potentially receive consecutive sentences for his multiple convictions. After review, we affirm the judgment of the post-conviction court.

Branch vs. Thompson

M1998-00511-COA-R3-CV
In this case, the minor children of the parties have been declared dependent and neglected in juvenile court, and custody was awarded to Mother. Subsequently, the parties were divorced in circuit court, and Mother was awarded custody and Father was ordered to pay child support. Mother filed a petition in circuit court to hold Father in contempt for his failure to pay child support, and Father filed a cross petition seeking, among other things, to change custody. At the conclusion of an evidentiary hearing, the circuit court awarded custody of the children to Father. Mother has appealed, and we vacate the order changing custody because of lack of subject matter jurisdiction.
