Why this matter is tracked
In this health care liability appeal, the Tennessee Court of Appeals addressed briefing deficiencies by the pro se appellant, Pamela Moses. The State argued that Moses failed to properly cite the record or legal authority. The court noted that Moses' brief contained citation errors and at least one fictitious case. The court stated it would disregard any legal authorities it could not verify as authentic. Ultimately, the court affirmed the Claims Commission's dismissal of the action on independent grounds, specifically Moses' failure to file a compliant certificate of good faith as required by Tenn. Code Ann. § 29-26-122, and her failure to challenge the Commissioner's alternative finding that her amended certificate was defective.
