Effective July 1, 1989 Tennessee Code Annotated section 16-21-111 requires the clerk of each Circuit and Chancery court to report to the Tennessee Judicial Council the following information on a monthly basis: the number of cases filed claiming monetary damages for personal injury or death, the number of such cases actually proceeding to trial. For the cases proceeding to trial, clerks must also report:

• the number of cases in which the plaintiff was awarded monetary damages for personal injury or death;

• the judgment amount in a jury case; • the judgment amount In a case without a jury; and • any additur or remittitur awarded in the case by the trial judge.

The staff of the Administrative Office of the Courts (AOC), acting as staff for the Judicial Council, compiles this information and reports the findings of the previous fiscal year to the chairpersons of the Senate and House Judiciary Committees as well to the Attorney General. This information is included in the Annual Report of the Judiciary so that statistical information relating to the court system can be located easily. This data is obtained from the Tennessee Judicial Information System (TJIS) database.

The case filings reported monthly by the clerks are classified by case type categories, one of which is a damage/tort category. The damage/ tort category consists of personal injury and wrongful death cases only. Property damage cases are not included in the category. Medical malpractice cases are also separated by their own case type category. All dispositions are classified according to the manner of dispositions.

The following table shows the number of filings and dispositions for damage/tort and medical malpractice case categories for the fiscal year 2014-15.

FY 2014-15 Filed FY 2014-15 Disposed Medical Malpractice 356 346 Damages / Torts 9,777 9,695

Of the 346 concluded medical malpractice cases, 28 proceeded to trial and monetary awards reported for these cases total $5,750,000.

Page 388: Annual Report of the Tennessee Judiciary Fiscal …Annual Report of the Tennessee Judiciary Fiscal Year 2014-2015 Statistics “Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.”

There were 10,133 cases filed and 10,041 cases concluded in both the Medical Malpractice and Damages/Torts categories in fiscal year 2014-15. Of the 10,041 case dispositions, 367 (3.7%) proceeded to trial. Jury trials accounted for 183 (49.9%) and non-jury trials accounted for 184 (50.1%) of cases that proceeded to trial. Cases proceeding to trial this fiscal year decreased from the previous year. The four metropolitan areas (Davidson, Hamilton, Knox & Shelby counties) reported 210 cases proceeding to trial, representing 57.2% of cases proceeding to trial.

The chart on page 391 compares the number of damage/tort and medical malpractice cases disposed to cases proceeding to trial from fiscal years 2008-09 to 2014-15.

Of the 367 cases statewide proceeding to trial in fiscal year 2014-15, 116 received monetary awards. The statewide total awarded is $46,901,449, which is an increase of $2,177,470 from the previous year. Of the 210 cases proceeding to trial in the four metropolitan areas, 79 received monetary awards totaling $42,997,889, which is an increase of $1,085,511 from the previous year. The four metropolitan areas also account for 97.8% of all damage/tort and medical malpractice awards for the year.

The chart on page 389 compares total monetary awards from fiscal years 2007-08 to 2014-15.

The average award for fiscal year 2014-15 was $404,323 which represents an increase of $54,917 from the previous year’s average. The chart on page 390 also compares the average monetary award per year for fiscal years 2008-09 through 2014-15.

For fiscal year 2014-15 there were 14 trial cases awarded between $100,000 and $1,000,000. There were 7 cases awarded over $1,000,000. These 21 cases had a combined award of $44,854,210 which represents 95.6% of all awards for the fiscal year. Shelby County had the largest award for the fiscal year at $30,000,000.
