Luvell Glanton will not appear on the ballot for Circuit Court Division VII after losing an emergency request to the Tennessee Court of Appeals to take the case up in an expedited manner. The May 3 Democratic primary will be between Lynne Ingram and the incumbent Kelvin Jones.

After losing in Chancery Court on Wednesday, Glanton had sought an expedited appeal, but the appellate court denied it on Friday. The case may continue, but it will not be heard in time for the attorney to appear on the May 3 ballot.
