This case involves a settlement of an insurance claim under the comprehensive coverage of an automobile insurance policy. Wife, named insured in the policy, sued the insurance company for breach of contract in delivering to husband a settlement check made jointly payable to wife and her husband, after husband apparently negotiated the check. Wife amended her complaint to name her ex-husband as an additional defendant, and he filed an answer to the complaint. In a nonjury trial, the trial court entered judgment for plaintiff-wife against the insurance company. Insurance company appealed. We vacate.

| Ray C. Hall v. TN. Workers Credit Union
M2001-01346-COA-R3-CV
Husband and Wife obtained a loan from a credit union and pledged their home as security for the note under a Deed of Trust. The Deed of Trust required Husband and Wife to maintain property taxes and insurance on the property. The credit union foreclosed on the property after Husband and Wife continuously failed to maintain the taxes and insurance. Husband and Wife filed suit against the credit union, arguing that the agreement between the parties did not provide the remedy of foreclosure for mere nonpayment of taxes and insurance. The trial court granted summary judgment for the credit union. Because we find that the agreement between the parties provides the remedy of foreclosure for breach of any promise made under the agreement, including the promise to pay property taxes and insurance, we find that the trial court was correct in granting summary judgment for the credit union and affirm that decision.

| Cox Oil vs. Lexington Beer Bd.
W2001-01489-COA-R3-CV
This is an action challenging the denial of a beer permit. The plaintiff business applied for a beer permit with the defendant beer board. The board denied the permit because plaintiff's location was within 500 feet of a church. This proximity to a church was in violation of a city ordinance. The plaintiff filed a writ of certiorari in the trial court, seeking a reversal of the board's decision because the 500-feet ordinance had been applied in a discriminatory manner. The trial court found that the board had allowed another establishment that was within 500 feet of a church to maintain its beer permit, and concluded that the board had therefore applied the ordinance in a discriminatory manner. Consequently, the denial of the plaintiff's beer permit was reversed. The board now appeals that order. We affirm, finding that the board had applied the ordinance in a discriminatory manner, and that the trial court did not err in reversing the denial of the plaintiff's beer permit.
