Terms Used In Tennessee Code 54-10-208

  • Affirmed: In the practice of the appellate courts, the decree or order is declared valid and will stand as rendered in the lower court.
  • Appeal: A request made after a trial, asking another court (usually the court of appeals) to decide whether the trial was conducted properly. To make such a request is "to appeal" or "to take an appeal." One who appeals is called the appellant.
  • Commissioner: means the commissioner of transportation. See Tennessee Code 54-5-103

If the action of the jury of view be affirmed, the commissioner or commissioners shall then proceed as if no appeal had been taken; if otherwise, the order of the court shall be carried out.
