IN THE COURT OF APPEALS OF TENNESSEE AT NASHVILLE
September 20, 2011 Session FORREST ERECTORS, INC. V. HOLSTON GLASS COMPANY, INC.
Appeal from the Chancery Court for Montgomery County MCCHCVCD1025 Laurence M. McMillan, Jr., Chancellor

No. M2011-00476-COA-R3-CV - Filed November 14, 2011

A Tennessee corporation located in Montgomery County filed a breach of contract action against a Tennessee corporation located in Sullivan County to collect money allegedly owing for services rendered in North Carolina. The defendant moved to dismiss the complaint for improper venue. The trial court granted the motion and dismissed the complaint because it concluded the proper venue was Sullivan County, where the defendant resides. We affirm the trial court's judgment. The plaintiff's action is transitory and therefore governed by Tenn. Code Ann.
