Court reviews contract between consumer and utility board

GARY COOPER v. CLINTON UTILITIES BOARD (Tenn. Ct. App. July 23, 2010)

Plaintiff brought this action, charging defendant utility breached its contract with plaintiff to construct a line and deliver electricity to his property. Defendant filed a Motion for Summary Judgment and the Trial Judge held that there was no meeting of the minds between the parties and defendant was not obligated to construct a line to deliver electricity to plaintiff's dwelling. On appeal, we affirm.
