The Knoxville News-Sentinel reported portraits of former presidents Andrew Jackson, James K. Polk and Andrew Johnson, all Democrats, had been covered for a Republican party celebration on election night.
During the event, a flag that both the Republican Party and the hotel deny placing in front of a shrouded landscape painting fell onto Elmer Paul Allen, who sued the hotel.
A year later, Allen added the political party as a defendant.
The appellate court ruled Allen's suit against the hotel could proceed, but said he waited too long to sue the Republicans.
