DENNIS M. CLOHERTY v. FIRST HORIZON HOME LOANS, a division of FIRST TENNESSEE BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION

Plaintiff Dennis M. Cloherty commenced this action on July 14, 2009, claiming slander of title and seeking, presumably, to reform a foreclosure deed of the parcel of real property, known as and numbered 2 Harvest Road in Wakefield, owned of record by Defendant First Horizon Home Loans, a division of First Tennessee Bank National Association. Defendant answered the Complaint on August 3, 2009.

After careful consideration of all of the evidence, the court issued an order today, allowing the Defendant’s Special Motion to Dismiss.

In accordance with that Order, it is hereby:

ADJUDGED and ORDERED that the Defendant, First Horizon Home Loans, a Division of First Tennessee Bank National Association’s Special Motion to Dismiss is ALLOWED; and it is further

ADJUDGED and ORDERED that the Complaint be and is hereby DISMISSED.
