Christine Spann v. Barry Abraham, Individually, and D/B/A Sir Pizza M1996-00003-COA-R3-CV Authoring Judge: Judge William C. Koch, Jr. Trial Court Judge: Chancellor Irvin H. Kilcrease, Jr. This appeal involves a pregnancy discrimination claim asserted by an employee of a Nashville pizza restaurant. After refusing to accept a temporary reassignment requested by her employer, the employee quit her job and filed suit, alleging that her employer had discriminated against her in violation of the Tennessee Human Rights Act. The Chancery Court for Davidson County granted the employer ’s motion for directed verdict at the close of the employee’s proof after concluding that she had not made out a prima facie case for disparate treatment because of her pregnancy. The employee asserts on this appeal that the trial court erred by directing a verdict for the employer and by amending its final order on its own motion. We have concluded that the trial court correctly directed a verdict for the employer in this case and, therefore, affirm the trial court.	Davidson	Court of Appeals	11/05/99

Richard Thomas Bogan, v. Doris Mae Bogan - Dissenting 03A01-9811-CH-00393 Authoring Judge: Judge Charles D. Susano, Jr. Trial Court Judge: Chancellor John S. McLellan, III I dissent from the judgment of the majority opinion “reinstat[ing] the prior award of $2,300 monthly alimony as provided in the parties’ original divorce decree.” In my opinion, the trial court did not abuse its discretion when it reduced Mr. Bogan’s monthly alimony obligation from $2,300 to $945.
