Court: TN Court of Appeals

Attorneys 1: Michael J. Wall, J. Gerard Stranch, IV, and Martin F. Schubert, Nashville, Tennessee; Lynn A. Toops, Indianapolis, Indiana; and Christopher D. Jennings, Little Rock, Arkansas, for the appellant, Daphne Saunders.

Attorneys 2: Brandon J. Wilson, Royal Oak, Michigan, and Lawrence F. Giordano and Jared S. Garceau, Knoxville, Tennessee, for the appellee, Y-12 Federal Credit Union.

Judge(s): FRIERSON

The plaintiff, Daphne Saunders, filed a complaint against Y-12 Federal Credit Union (“Y-12”), alleging breach of the parties’ banking contract. Ms. Saunders asserted that Y- 12 had charged excessive fees for items presented for payment from Ms. Saunders’s account that were returned due to insufficient funds. Ms. Saunders also alleged breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing and asserted that Y-12 had been unjustly enriched by charging excessive fees. The trial court dismissed Ms. Saunders’s claims with prejudice, finding that Ms. Saunders had failed to state a claim upon which relief could be granted. Ms. Saunders has appealed. Discerning no reversible error, we affirm.
