Enlargement & Extension of the Municipal Boundaries of the Town of Terry v. Town of Terry
Mississippi Supreme Court
1Opinion of the Court
RANDOLPH, PRESIDING JUSTICE, FOR THE COURT:
¶ 1. The Town of Terry sought to annex five territories adjacent to the existing Town—Territory 1 to the north, Territory 2 to the west, Territory 3 to the east, Territory 4 to the northeast, and Territory 5 to the south. The Chancery Court of Hinds County determined such an extensive annexation was unreasonable. However, the chancellor partially granted the Town’s annexation request, finding their request for Territories 2 and 3 was reasonable. Some of the objectors appealed. Finding no error, we affirm.
