Hurt-Hoover Investments, LLC, Appellant v. Lester Fulmer, Rob Bentley, Robert Best, and Carl Chilson, Appellees

Summary

The court held that the general venue statute did not impliedly repeal the more specific statute governing actions on debts and notes, but venue was nevertheless proper in the plaintiffs' county under the general statute. The court also held that the drafting attorney's proposed testimony was inadmissible because it reflected only the buyer's uncommunicated subjective interpretation of the agreement, so exclusion of the testimony was not an abuse of discretion. The judgment was affirmed, and the court of appeals' opinion was vacated.
