A Mobile County, Alabama jury unanimously found in favor firm client, South Bay Homes, LLC. South Bay is a mobile home dealership-related finance company which sought to recover a mobile home when the buyer breached a lease purchase agreement by assigning it to a third-party without South Bay's consent. The third-party mobile home possessor resisted repossession efforts forcing South Bay to sue for its recovery. The possessor then filed a counter-claim alleging fraud and breach of contract. The case was tried before a jury for a day and half by Tristan Russell Armer and Jason M. Payne. After both parties rested their respective cases, the Circuit Court granted South Bay's motion for a directed verdict on the possessor's counter-claims. The jury then deliberated and returned a verdict in favor of South Bay Homes, LLC on its possession/replevin claim.
