TIMOTHY A. BAXTER v. STATE OF TENNESSEE, ET AL.

Posted by: Chandra Williams on Aug 10, 2015

Court: TN Court of Appeals

Attorneys 1:

Timothy Aaron Baxter, Tiptonville, Tennessee, appellant, pro se.

Attorneys 2:

Herbert H. Slatery, III, Attorney General and Reporter, Laura Miller, Assistant Attorney General, Nashville, Tennessee, for the appellee, State of Tennessee. James I. Pentecost, Jackson, Tennessee, for the appellee, Madison County, Tennessee.

Judge(s): ARMSTRONG

This appeal arises from the trial court’s grant of two motions to dismiss in favor of Appellees. With regard to the State of Tennessee, the trial court found that the State and its employees were immune from liability under the doctrines of sovereign immunity, judicial immunity, and prosecutorial immunity. With regard to Madison County, the trial court held that Appellant’s complaint was time barred. Discerning no error, we affirm and remand.
