RACHEL LORETTA TERRY v. CRAIG STEVEN TERRY

Posted by: Azya Thornton on Jul 24, 2026

Court: TN Court of Appeals

Attorneys 1: Bratten Hale Cook II, Smithville, Tennessee, for the appellant, Craig Steven Terry.

Attorneys 2: Jonathan Skrmetti, Attorney General & Reporter; and Mara L. Cunningham, Assistant Attorney General, for the appellee, Tennessee Department of Human Services.

Judge(s): USMAN

Father overpaid child support, and the trial court ordered the overpayment to be credited against future monthly payments. After the judgment became final, Father filed a motion for relief from judgment under Tennessee Rule of Civil Procedure 60, seeking a judgment against Mother rather than credit against future child support payments. Father also sought to depose three State employees in an effort to determine why certain payments had been released to Mother instead of being held by the State. The trial court denied the Rule 60 motion, granted a motion to quash the depositions, and denied a motion to alter or amend. We affirm.
