This appeal presents two issues for review: 1) whether a person asserting a health care liability claim must give written notice of the claim to all potential health care defendants before re-filing a complaint, or whether notice given before filing the first complaint is sufficient notice for a subsequently filed complaint against the same defendants; and 2) if pre-suit notice is required for each complaint, whether the sanction for noncompliance is a dismissal with or without prejudice.

The plaintiff, an Emergency Medical Technician, alleged that he suffered a heart attack as a result of his employment. He relied on the presumption created by Tennessee Code Annotated section 7-51-201(b) and also testimony of his treating physician. His Employer presented testimony from an evaluating physician that the Employee did not sustain a heart attack and that his coronary artery disease was not related to his employment. The trial court found that the statutory presumption had been rebutted and that the Employee had failed to carry his burden of proof. The Employee has appealed.

A Rutherford County Circuit Court Jury convicted the appellant, Nicholas Keith Phillips, of two counts of rape of a child, a Class A felony, and two counts of aggravated sexual battery, a Class B felony.

On appeal, the appellant contends that the evidence is insufficient to support the convictions and that his dual convictions for the offenses violate principles of double jeopardy.

For his part, Father asserted that he touched the Child’s vaginal area only as part of his normal parenting duties, and that he never touched her in an inappropriate manner.

Two South Carolina insurance companies challenged their Tennessee retaliatory tax assessments. The Tennessee Claims Commission held that the Department of Commerce and Insurance did not calculate the South Carolina tax burden correctly because it did not include reimbursements received by the insurance companies from South Carolina’s Second Injury Fund. The Commission also denied the Department’s motion to strike portions of an affidavit. The Department appealed.

The sole issue presented in this workers’ compensation appeal is whether the trial court correctly found that the employee did not have a meaningful return to work. The employee, a Head Start teacher, sustained a compensable back injury. She continued to work for about a year but then was not rehired because she had failed to meet a federal education mandate. The trial court found that she had not made a meaningful return to work and awarded benefits in excess of one and one half times the anatomical impairment. Tenn. Code. Ann. § 50-6-241(d).
