| State vs. James Hankins
W1999-00529-CCA-R3-PC
James R. Hankins appeals the Shelby County Criminal Court's denial of his petition for post-conviction relief. All of his allegations are without merit, save one. Hankins has established by clear and convincing evidence that his counsel on direct appeal failed to follow the required procedures for withdrawal of counsel under Supreme Court Rule 14. Accordingly, we affirm in part, reverse in part, and vacate and reinstate our judgment in Hankins' direct appeal.

M1999-01285-COA-R3-CV
In this divorce case, the husband challenges only the trial court's refusal to award him a portion of the wife's retirement account. Although retirement benefits earned during a marriage are marital property, we find the division of property to be equitable and affirm.

| 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.

| Joe Martin vs. State
M1999-01642-COA-R3-CV
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.

| Cynthia Y. Long v. City of Maryville - Dissenting
E1999-00024-COA-R3-CV
I dissent because I do not find that the evidence preponderates against the trial court’s judgment dismissing the plaintiff’s complaint. In fact, there is precious little evidence in the record bearing on the culpability of the City of Maryville (“the City”). In my judgment, the proof shows little more than that the plaintiff slipped and fell on icy pavement in a city park at a place near a functioning water fountain on a day when the temperature was at or below freezing. What the evidence does not show is negligence of an employee of the City; notice to the City of a condition of the type described in T.C.A. § 29-20- 203(a); or the necessary causal connection between actionable conduct on the part of the City and the plaintiff’s fall.
