Description
Arthur Carson, an inmate proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis, presents eight issues by which he contends the trial court erred in dismissing his action for negligence, violations of the Civil Rights Act and Americans with Disabilities Act, and other claims against David Walker, Pete Lopez, Jr., and George Utters, Correction Officers at the William P. Clements Unit, Texas Tech Medical Branch (Clements Unit), TDCJ-ID Inmate Trust Fund, and the Clements Unit Law Library, appellees. By his issues, he asserts (1) the evidence was insufficient to support a finding of vexatious litigation; (2) the trial court erred in dismissing the entire lawsuit; (3) the trial court inappropriately admitted documents of his previous case; (4) the trial court abused its discretion in denying witnesses; and (5) in failing to calculate the filing fee costs based on previous six months deposits; (6) the trial court violated his due process in arbitrarily imposing contempt sanctions (no written order, oral announcement of $500 fine); (7) the trial court abused its discretion in failing to give him the opportunity to be heard; and (8) the trial court erroneously dismissed the lawsuit as frivolous. Based upon the rationale expressed herein, we reform and affirm.
