Mary Jean Brewer, v. Edward Lelon Brewer, Jr.

Case Number
01A01-9710-CH-00611

This case tests the power of the trial court to order an adult, slightly handicapped child to visit his father. The Chancery Court of Rutherford County held that it was the duty of the court to require the visitation. We hold that under the circumstances of this case the court exceeded its jurisdiction.
