Stevenson v. Lima Locomotive Works, Inc.

Tennessee Supreme Court

Decided July 3, 1943PublishedCited by 9 opinions

1Opinion of the CourtJustice Neil

This case is before us on appeal from tbe Chancery Court of Shelby County. The Chancellor dismissed complainants’ bill after a hearing on bill and answer and a stipulation of facts. The sole determinative question is whether or not a conditional sales contract between the parties is governed by the law of Ohio, Arkansas, or Tennessee. Complainants insist that it is a Tennessee contract, while defendant contends that it is an Ohio contract, as held by the Chancellor, or, if not, then the law of Arkansas is applicable in determining the rights and interests of the parties.
