No specific laws identified for this ruling.
Trial court's summary judgment in favor of appellee (Connie Mundy) was affirmed on appeal, with the court finding that the appellant (Federal National Mortgage Association) lacked standing to pursue the foreclosure action.
Generally at issue in this litigation is the propriety of a foreclosure. The trial court held that summary judgment should be entered in the appellee's favor due to, among other things, the appellant's lack of standing. The appellant's principal brief only raises issues connected to the trial court's determination on standing, although even these issues have now been disclaimed by the appellant on appeal. We therefore affirm the trial court's judgment.
This summary was generated to explain the ruling in plain English and is not legal advice.
Plaintiff brought claims against Knox County and the County Clerk based on allegedly discriminatory employment practices. The trial court determined that Plaintiff committed serious discovery violations and imposed as a sanction the exclusion of certain evidence. With this evidence excluded, the trial court granted summary judgment to the Defendants. Plaintiff appeals, challenging the discovery sanction, the trial court's conclusion under the Tennessee Human Rights Act that the continuing violation doctrine did not apply, the trial court's conclusion that the Clerk was not individually liable, and the award of attorney's fees against the Plaintiff and her attorney. We affirm.
