LINDSEY A. JORDAN v. EAST TENNESSEE HUMAN RESOURCES AGENCY, INC.

Syllabus

The plaintiff appeals the trial court's summary judgment dismissal of her personal injury negligence action against a social services organization. The trial court found that the action was barred by the applicable one-year statute of limitations and that the discovery rule did not apply to toll the statute of limitations. Because the plaintiff's action accrued more than one year before she filed the lawsuit, we conclude that summary judgment in favor of the defendant was properly granted. Accordingly, we affirm.

Judges: Judge John W. McClarty
