Ellie Claire Young graduated from the University of Tennessee at Martin (UT- Martin) with honors in May of 2024 and was accepted to start medical school at the University of Tennessee Center for Health Sciences in Memphis in August of this year.

While the two were dating, Defendant Jackson Hopper’s grandfather died and left him a considerable amount of land.

After Ellie graduated from UT-Martin, Defendant Jackson Hopper made it clear ‘that he did not want Ellie to move to Memphis and their relationship changed. Hopper became oe and controlling and engaged in assaultive behavior on more than one occasion in April and May of 2024, which led to Ellie breaking up with him. 17. When Ellie’s family learned about the assaultive behavior, they inquired about getting a restraining order against him. Prior to asking a court to enter an order of protection dgainst Hopper, one of Ellie’s family members contacted Defendant Martha Hopper on Ellie’s Behalf to tell her about the family’s concerns. Defendant Martha Hopper advised Ellie’s family thember ‘that a restraining order would not be necessary because (a) Jackson had never hurt anyone and would never hurt anyone and (b) Jackson had moved to middle Tennessee and was getting on with his life. Defendant Martha Hopper assured Ellie’s family member that her son was not faywhere Ellie and that they did not need to worry about him hurting her. Plaintiff now believes that Martha Hopper was lying when she made these statements and that she was just trying to Protect her son from potential criminal charges.

Upon information and belief, Defendant Jackson Hopper has substantial cash in ne o= more finmnial instaon including but not Timid wo an account with Chares Schad Company, Inc. 80.

Currently Defendant Hopper is incarcerated and no bond has been set for his release so such expenditures Should be minimal at this time. , 88. Defendants should be prohibited, by way of a restraining order and injunction, to the fullest extent possible, from taking any action which would prevent or hinder Plaintiff from executing on a judgment he may obtain in this case. 15 89.
