Description

This appeal arises from plaintiff-grantors' attempt to set aside a general warranty deed to defendants Gerald and Jacqueline Lofton as grantees. Grantors, James and Melba Sharpton, also sought money damages from the Loftons for fraud in inducing plaintiffs to execute the sale contract and deed, and claimed damages for breach of oral contract promising to provide personal services to plaintiffs as additional consideration for the land. Finally, plaintiffs sought damages against defendant Patsy Richter, a notary public, and her surety, Aetna Casualty and Surety Company, because Ms. Richter notarized plaintiffs' signatures on the general warranty deed without plaintiffs personally appearing before her. Defendants Lofton counterclaimed against plaintiffs alleging they had breached an express covenant in the warranty deed to defend title and an implied covenant of quiet enjoyment by filing this suit and two related notices of lis pendens. The case was tried in equity and the court entered judgment against plaintiffs on their entire petition and in favor of all defendants and found for defendants Lofton on their counterclaim. The court entered judgment for $3,000 in actual damages and $1,000 in punitive damages. Pursuant to plaintiffs' motion, the trial court later reduced the judgment for actual damages to $1,500 and the punitive damages to $1. Plaintiffs appeal. We affirm in part and reverse in part.
