DOC recommends denial of this claim. The claimant received his property on March 20, 2003, but failed to file any complaint until April 5, 2003. DOC states that the claimant's complaints all focused on allegedly missing property, not the damaged radio and that his own statement on his initial complaint indicates "issue: property taken from me upon arrival at CCI." DOC points to the fact that the Administrative Code provides that repair of inmate property shall be at the inmate's expense and that DOC is not responsible for loss or damage caused by the inmate or other inmates. Although DOC is responsible for property damaged by DOC staff, the claimant has provided absolutely no evidence to support his contention that DOC personnel caused the damage. Barring such evidence, DOC does not believe the state should be held responsible for the damages.
The Board concludes there has been an insufficient showing of negligence on the part of the state, its officers, agents or employees and this claim is neither one for which the state is legally liable nor one which the state should assume and pay based on equitable principles.
The Board concludes:
1. The claims of the following claimants should be denied:
Mike and Julie Savidusky
University Avenue Stamps
Colleen Eidt
George T. Harrell
Jeffrey LaBudda
Frank T. Teumer
Martha Gesch
Kimberley M. Aldridge

Thomas M. Barcz
Robert L. Collins-Bey
Berrell Freeman
David K. Dellis
