Thompson Machinery wants to move its regional headquarters from Whitehaven to Collierville and create new high-paying jobs in the process.
Rookie Mitch Spence took a no-hitter into the sixth inning, Miguel Andújar hit a three-run homer, and the Oakland Athletics beat the Tampa Bay Rays 3-0 on Tuesday night. Spence (4-2) had allowed just one base runner — a second-inning leadoff walk to Isaac Paredes — until José Caballero flared a single to center with one out in the sixth. T.J. McFarland, Michael Kelly and Mason Miller, who worked the ninth to get his 11th save in as many chances, completed a three-hitter.
The U.S. Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) on Tuesday scored a jurisdictional victory when a federal judge in Texas transferred to another court in Washington, D.C., an industry-backed lawsuit challenging the agency's rule capping credit card late fees at $8. U.S. District Judge Mark Pittman in Fort Worth moved swiftly to transfer the lawsuit out of his courthouse for a second time after a federal appeals court that had previously prevented him from doing so relinquished jurisdiction on Friday. That could give the CFPB a home-turf advantage as it defends a key part of President Joe Biden administration's crackdown on "junk fees" against a lawsuit filed by groups including the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and the American Bankers Association.
