SUPREME COURT
TORTS: When plaintiff alleged that negligence of general contractor and two
flooring subcontractors caused fire that destroyed partially completed house,
trial court properly ruled that subcontractors and general contractor were
entitled to summary judgment; plaintiffs could not rely on res ipsa loquitur
because they did not produce sufficient evidence that general contractor was
in exclusive control of specific cause or all reasonably probable causes of fire;
plaintiffs did not produce sufficient evidence to establish that any negligence
of subcontractors was cause in fact of fire. Jenkins v. Big City Remodeling,
4/5/17, Knoxville, Lee, unanimous, 12 pages.
