Syllabus

The trial court correctly granted judgment on the pleadings in favor of appellee-zoning inspector on appellant's complaint for malicious prosecution. Although appellant's minor misdemeanor conviction for advertising and operating a bed and breakfast in an agricultural district was reversed on appeal, appellee was entitled to statutory immunity as an employee of a political subdivision and did not act outside the scope of his employment, with malicious purpose, in bad faith, or in a wanton or reckless manner. Judgment affirmed.
