Valerie Humphreys vs. Stuart Breakstone
W1999-02502-COA-R3-CV
Authoring Judge: Judge Holly M. Kirby
Trial Court Judge: W. Michael Maloan
This is a legal malpractice action. The plaintiff is the majority shareholder of a corporation as well as a member of the corporation's board of directors. The defendant attorney and law firm represented the corporation. The plaintiff sued the defendant for professional malpractice, negligence, collusion, and interference in economic development, arising out of the defendant's representation of the corporation. The trial court held that the plaintiff did not have standing to bring a derivative suit in her own name since all of the alleged injuries were suffered by the corporation, not the plaintiff. We affirm, finding that a derivative suit to address injuries to a corporation must be filed in the name of the corporation, and that an individual shareholder may not sue pro se on behalf of the corporation.

Jabari Mandela v. Donal Campbell
M1998-00208-COA-R3-CV
Authoring Judge: Judge William C. Koch, Jr.
Trial Court Judge: Carol L. Mccoy
This appeal involves a dispute between a prisoner and the Tennessee Department of Correction regarding the Department's mail policy. After the Department returned two packages addressed to him to their respective senders and denied his request for a declaratory order, the prisoner filed a petition in the Chancery Court for Davidson County seeking a declaratory judgment that the Department's policy should have been promulgated as a rule under Tennessee's Uniform Administrative Procedures Act and that returning the packages was inconsistent with the warden's statutory obligation to "receive" an incarcerated prisoner's property. The trial court upheld the policy and its application to the prisoner, and the prisoner has appealed. We affirm.

William Wyatt v. Board of Paroles
M1999-00472-COA-R3-CV
Authoring Judge: Judge William C. Koch, Jr.
Trial Court Judge: Carol L. Soloman
This appeal involves a dispute between a state prisoner and the Tennessee Board of Paroles over the Board's decision not to parole him in 1998. The Circuit Court for Davidson County dismissed the prisoner's petition for common-law writ of certiorari, and the prisoner perfected this appeal. While his appeal was pending, the prisoner was released from the Department of Correction after serving the two sentences for which he had been incarcerated. Accordingly, we have determined that this appeal is now moot because the prisoner has been released from custody. Therefore, we vacate the trial court's order and remand the case with directions to dismiss the prisoner's petition.
