Syllabus

This appeal stems from an ouster proceeding that was commenced against the former mayor of Jellico, Tennessee. When the mayor was defeated in his bid to seek reelection, the trial court dismissed the ouster complaint as moot. Notwithstanding this outcome, the defendant argued that the trial court should consider his \Counter- Complaint\ that he filed in connection with the underlying proceeding. The trial court, however, ultimately dismissed the \Counter-Complaint.\ For the reasons stated herein, we affirm.
