21A-PL-1073
Civil plenary. Affirms the dismissal of inmate James E. Manley’s “Civil Action for Mandate.” Finds the Henry Circuit Court did not err when it dismissed the portions of Manley’s request for mandate concerning statutory violations that allegedly occurred as part of the prison disciplinary process pursuant to Indiana Trial Rule 12(B)(1) because it did not have subject matter jurisdiction to review Manley’s challenge to prison disciplinary decisions. Also finds the trial court did not err when it dismissed Manley’s constitutional claim under Article 1, Section 2 of the Indiana Constitution pursuant to Indiana Trial Rule 12(B)(6) because Manley did not sufficiently allege what actions or inactions the defendants allegedly took that resulted in an alleged violation of his constitutional right to free exercise of religion.
