Posted by: Azya Thornton on Jun 5, 2025

Court: TN Court of Appeals

Attorneys 1: Roland W. Baggot III, Nashville, Tennessee, for the appellants, 83 Freight, LLC; Capital City Construction, LLC; and SureTec Insurance Company.

Attorneys 2: Beau C. Creson and Evan S. Rothey, Nashville, Tennessee, for the appellee, C4 Sourcing Solutions, LLC.

Judge(s): CLEMENT

This appeal concerns counterclaims and third-party claims for breach of contract, violation of the Prompt Pay Act of 1991, and enforcement of a lien. The counter-plaintiff, C4 Sourcing Solutions, LLC, alleged that a third-party defendant, Capital City Construction, LLC, breached its agreement to purchase 171 custom-fabricated steel containers for use in an apartment complex. C4 also sought to enforce a lien against the complex property, which was owned by the plaintiff, 83 Freight, LLC. After a trial, the jury found Capital City breached its contract with C4 and awarded $866,000 in compensatory damages. And after a post-trial hearing, the court granted C4’s request to collect on its lien. Capital City and 83 Freight raise numerous issues on appeal. We affirm in part, reverse in part, and modify in part.
