Description
In this case, we are asked to decide whether the lex loci delicti conflicts-of-law doctrine should continue to be followed in tort cases in Tennessee. The decedent, Grady Hataway, died as a result of complications from a scuba dive in an Arkansas rock quarry. The dive took place as part of a scuba class taught at Memphis State University by the defendant, Robert McKinley. Although both the decedent and the defendant were life-long residents of Tennessee, the trial court followed previous decisions of this Court and held that Arkansas law governed the plaintiffs wrongful death action under the lex loci delicti doctrine. The trial courts decision on this issue was affirmed by the Court of Appeals.
