ALIAS v. City of Oxford

Court of Appeals of Mississippi

1Opinion of the Court

BARNES, J.,

for the Court:

¶ 1. William Alias, Jr. appeals the judgment of the Circuit Court of Lafayette County that upheld the City of Oxford’s grant of a zoning variance to Richard Elam for construction of a privacy fence which bordered his and Alias’s residential property. After a careful review of the *1115record, we find the circuit court lacked jurisdiction to hear the appeal from the City of Oxford’s Planning Commission; thus, the case is not properly before this Court. Accordingly, we vacate the circuit court’s judgment and dismiss the appeal for lack of jurisdiction.
