E2002-02519-COA-R3-CV
While on patrol, Officer Gerald Thomas George ("the Officer") heard a "thumping bass noise" coming from a vehicle "at least 100 yards" away. The Officer stopped the vehicle and issued a citation for violation of section 18-5 of the City of Knoxville noise ordinance ("Ordinance") to the driver, Lumari Harshaw ("Defendant"). The Trial Court found Defendant violated the Ordinance. Defendant appeals claiming the City of Knoxville ("City") failed to prove an element of the charge, specifically that the noise was "audible to a person of normal hearing sensitivity more than fifty (50) feet from [the] vehicle." We affirm.

In these consolidated appeals a wife appeals the order of the Tennessee Claims Commission dismissing her claim for loss of consortium because it was not brought as a part of her husband's claim, and the husband and wife appeal the Davidson County Circuit Court's denial of their motion to amend to add the wife's claim to the husband's action against the State of Tennessee and other defendants. We reverse the action of the Claims Commission and remand the wife's claim to the Circuit Court for trial.

| Mitch Stooksbury vs. American National Property
E2002-02385-COA-R3-CV
Mitch and Gina Stooksbury ("Plaintiffs") purchased homeowners insurance from American National Property and Casualty Company ("Defendant"). After Plaintiffs' home was destroyed by fire, they were informed by Defendant that their insurance policy had been cancelled prior to the date of loss because of an underwriting risk arising from missing railing on a deck. Defendant claimed to have mailed a cancellation notice and refund check to Plaintiffs in accordance with the terms of the policy. Plaintiffs denied receiving the cancellation notice or refund check. A jury concluded Defendant failed to prove by a preponderance of the evidence that it mailed the cancellation notice to Plaintiffs. The jury also concluded Defendant acted unfairly and in bad faith, and that Defendant's failure to pay the loss was through fraudulent and deceptive practices. The Trial Court entered a judgment for Plaintiffs in the amount of $92,750, for damages pursuant to the insurance contract, plus prejudgment interest on that $92,750. The Trial Court also assessed a 25% bad faith penalty and an additional 5% for punitive damages. Both parties appeal. We affirm the judgment for Plaintiffs in the amount of $92,750 and the prejudgment interest awarded on that $92,750. The bad faith penalty and award of punitive damages is reversed.

Wife sought separate maintenance and support. After a two year separation during the pendency of Wife's petition, Husband sought a divorce on the statutory ground of the separation. Wife opposed the divorce. The trial court dismissed Husband's counter-complaint, awarded Wife a legal separation, divided the marital property, and awarded alimony in futuro to Wife. Husband appeals, challenging not only the trial court's decision not to award a divorce, but also the division of marital property and award of alimony to Wife. We affirm in part, reverse in part, and modify the trial court's order.
