City of Memphis, Tennessee v. Beale Street Development Corporation

Syllabus

After counsel announced that the parties had settled their differences, the trial court entered a consent judgment dismissing all claims with prejudice. One year later, one of the litigants moved to set aside the judgment arguing lack of consent and fraud. The moving party claimed that it never approved the settlement or consented to entry of the dismissal order. The trial court denied the motion. Because the trial court's decision was not an abuse of discretion, we affirm.
