Government tort claims: incarcerated plaintiffs.

Existing law provides for the liability and immunity of a public entity or public employee for acts or omissions that cause injury to persons. Under existing law, a public entity is not liable for an injury proximately caused by any prisoner or an injury to any prisoner. "Prisoner" is defined for these purposes to include an inmate of the state prison, a county jail, or a penal or correctional facility. Existing law further provides that neither a public entity nor a public employee is liable for failure to provide a prison, jail, or penal or correctional facility or, if the facility is provided, for failure to provide sufficient equipment, personnel, or facilities therein.
