Carl E. Swann v. City of Kingsport

Syllabus

The appellee filed a petition for a common law writ of certiorari seeking judicial review of a decision from the board of zoning appeals. Having determined that the petition did not comply with certain statutory requirements, we find that the trial court lacked subject matter jurisdiction to take up the writ. Accordingly, we vacate the trial court's order, and remand for the entry of an order of dismissal.
