Keenan R. Keen v. Tennessee Department of Correction, et al.

A Prison Disciplinary Board found a prisoner guilty of two disciplinary infractions, fined him $5.00 for each infraction and sentenced him to two thirty-day terms in punitive segregation. The prisoner filed a petition for writ of certiorari, alleging that there were irregularities in the procedures followed by the disciplinary board and that its actions were arbitrary, capricious, and characterized by an abuse of discretion. The trial court granted the writ, and the department accordingly sent the administrative record to the court for review. The respondents then filed a motion for judgment on the record. The trial court granted the motion and dismissed the prisoner's claim. We affirm the trial court.
