Irene Howard v. State of Tennessee
Syllabus
Following a car accident involving an employee of the State of Tennessee, Irene Howard (\Claimant\) sought damages against the State based on alleged injuries arising from the accident. The claim was denied by the Division of Claims and Risk Management (the \DCRM\), and Claimant thereafter appealed to the Claims Commission (the \Commission\). Because Claimant failed to appeal the DCRM's decision within ninety days, however, the Commission concluded it lacked jurisdiction over the case and dismissed the appeal. We affirm.
