Case Number
W2005-00703-COA-R3-CV

Inmate filed a petition for certiorari contesting his housing placement while incarcerated at WTSP.  The trial court dismissed the petition under the doctrine of mootness in view of the fact that inmate, during the course of the proceedings below was incarcerated at another penal institute. The trial court further  determined that the placement in housing was an administrative decision by the prison authorities and Petitioner’s rights were not violated by their decision. We affirm the dismissal under the doctrine of mootness.
