The Mississippi Supreme Court handed down just one opinion today, accompanied by six cert denials. The opinion is from an ejectment action case. It was before the Supreme Court on cert after the circuit court was affirmed by a 3-2-5 Court of Appeals. The pro se appellant rode the COA dissent to a cert grant and reversal.
Tubwell v. FV-1, Inc., 2021-CT-01345-SCT (Civil – Real Property)
Affirming in part and reversing in part the circuit court’s ruling (as affirmed by a 3-2-5 Court of Appeals) in an ejectment action, holding that the circuit court erred in finding that it lacked jurisdiction over the defendant’s counterclaims since the initial claim was an ejectment action that was governed by the Mississippi Rules of Civil Procedure which allow counterclaims.
