Court: TN Court of Appeals

Attorneys 1: Thomas Blaine Dixon, Clarksville, Tennessee, for the appellant, Ina Grace Jacobi.

Attorneys 2: Olivia Park and Jack Paul Brewer, Brentwood, Tennessee, for the appellee, VendEngine, Inc.

Judge(s): BENNETT

Ina Grace Jacobi sued VendEngine, Inc. (“VendEngine”), alleging that she was wrongfully arrested due to VendEngine’s negligent design and operation of an inmate messaging system. The trial court determined that the gravamen of Ms. Jacobi’s claim was for malicious prosecution and granted summary judgment to VendEngine after concluding she failed to prove the elements of that claim. Ms. Jacobi appealed. Discerning no error, we affirm the trial court’s decision.
