James C. Tomlinson and Charles F. McKelvey, v. Edna J. Kelley and Jeanette M. Coke
This appeal involves a controversy surrounding the appointment of a local city official. The mayor and the city manager of the City of Berry Hill filed a defamation action in the Circuit Court for Davidson County against two city residents who publicly questioned the circumstances surrounding the interim appointment of a member of the Board of Commissioners. The trial court granted the residents’ motion for summary judgment and dismissed the city officials’ complaint. On this appeal, the city officials assert that the trial court should not have granted the summary judgment because the record contains evidence that the residents knew or should have known that their critical statements made to a local newspaper were false. We affirm the trial court. |

Marcella J. Cheek, v. Margaret Culpepper, Commissioner of Employment Security and Galen Internal Medicine Group, P.C.
The Appeals Tribunal and the Board of Review held that this appellee was disqualified to receive unemployment insurance benefits because she voluntarily quit her job without good cause. Judicial review was sought by the appellee, and the decision of the Board of Review was reversed by the Chancellor, who found that “there was no substantial evidence to support the finding of fact that the petitioner’s shift change was temporary.” The employer appeals and presents for review the propriety of the reversal of the decision of the Board of Review. |
