COURT OF APPEALS
TORTS: In products liability action arising from workplace injury in which
plaintiffs left arm was severely injured when reducing mechanism attached
to ball valve he was using suddenly broke, causing release of pressurized air
and water, trial court properly granted summary judgment on plaintiffs
FAMILY LAW: In case in which parties, who were not married, had child
together in 2004, child spent most of his life in shared custody of mother
and maternal grandmother, in 2010, father filed suit seeking to be
reciting facts, it does not state that such order must be entered in record
before judge can summarily punish contemnor; Tennessee courts have
declined to require strict compliance with TRCrP 42(a)s requirements for
written order, and as such, attorney suffered no harm from juvenile courts
one-day delay in entering its written order, which clearly contains requisite
factual basis for contempt order. In re Brown, 3/23/15, WS at Memphis,
Gibson, 18 pages.
