Court reviews a nuisance lawsuit involving a loud Air Conditioning Condenser Unit

CHANDRA PEARSON v. VICTOR ROSS (Tenn. Ct. App. December 28, 2011)

This appeal involves a nuisance claim. The parties own adjoining homes in a neighborhood of zero-lot line homes. The defendant's air conditioning condenser unit is outside his home, between the parties' homes. The plaintiff filed this lawsuit against the defendant, alleging that the noise of the defendant's air conditioning unit constituted a nuisance, and seeking abatement of the nuisance, money damages, and injunctive relief. After a bench trial, the trial court held in favor of the defendant. The plaintiff now appeals. We affirm.
