| Ricky Lee Oldham v. Tennessee Department of Correction
M1998-00852-COA-R3-CV
This appeal involves a dispute between an inmate and the Tennessee Department of Correction (“Department”) regarding deductions from the inmate’s trust account to pay the court costs stemming from his criminal conviction. After his inmate grievance proved unsuccessful, the inmate filed a petition for a declaratory order in the Chancery Court for Davidson County seeking a declaration that the Department could not deduct funds from his inmate trust account without a court order. The trial court dismissed the inmate’s petition because it did not state that the inmate had previously sought a declaratory order from the Department. The inmate asserts on this appeal that he should be excused from this requirement because he is undertaking to represent himself and because his grievance was tantamount to a petition for a declaratory order. We affirm the dismissal of the inmate’s complaint in accordance with Tenn. Ct. App. R. 10(b).1

| Floyd Campbell vs. Corrections Corp. of America
M1999-01082-COA-R3-CV
This is an appeal by an inmate in a prison operated by Corrections Corporation of America (CCA). His claim stems from the monetary loss he received as a result, he alleges, of CCA employee(s) adding an unauthorized name and number to Mr. Campbell's call list which resulted in unauthorized charges. The court below dismissed Mr. Campbell's complaint on the grounds that the complaint did not allege a cause of action against CCA. We disagree. Mr. Campbell did sufficiently allege a cause of action against CCA for the negligence of its employee(s) in violating prison policies and adding an eleventh name and number to his call list without his permission or authorization. Further, CCA may be held vicariously liable for the negligent acts of its employees and, therefore, is a proper defendant.

Claimant, an inmate who was housed in a prison operated by a private prison operating company, filed a claim against the State for the loss of his personal property due to acts of employees of the company. The Claims Commission dismissed the claim for lack of jurisdiction because the private prison employees responsible for the loss were not "state employees." We affirm.
