Case Number
E2001-00840-COA-R3-CV
Erica R. Slaughter ("Slaughter") sued Rosetta Rowe ("Rowe") for slander and harassment after an alleged physical altercation precipitated by Slaughter's affair with Rowe's husband. After the physical altercation, Slaughter filed assault charges against Rowe leading to her arrest. The assault charge was eventually dismissed. Rowe filed a counter-claim for malicious prosecution. Each party testified at trial to her version of the events. The Trial Court concluded neither party carried her burden of proof on her claim and dismissed the entire lawsuit. Rowe appeals, and we affirm.
