Ready Mix, USA, LLC successfully appealed a decision from the Court of Appeals in a case against Jefferson County, Tennessee. The Supreme Court of Tennessee addressed whether the evidence supported the trial court's finding that Ready Mix’s activities indicated a pre-existing use of their property, which would entitle them to protection under Tennessee Code Annotated § 13-7-208 (2011). Justice William C. Koch, Jr. concurred with the majority, affirming that the evidence did not preponderate against the trial court's ruling. His agreement was predicated solely on established legal precedents related to § 13-7-208, explicitly excluding any consideration of the diminishing assets doctrine.
