Re: Purcell Bronson v. Nurse Newfield
Trial Court No. 95-1210 Civil Term
Dear Ms. Piper:
I am advised by Deby Taylor of this office that your office is
not forwarding the Notice of Appeal filed by Purcell Bronson in the
above matter to this Court because he has not complied with Pa.
R.C.P. No. 240(c) (1) (11). Your interpretation of that rule is
correct; however, it is inconsistent with Pa. R.A.P. 902 which
requires that the Appellant only take the step of filing a timely
Notice of Appeal in order to have a valid appeal, and Pa. R.A.P.
553 (a) which permits an Appellant to seek IFP status in the
appellate court if the trial court denies IFP. Therefore, I am
asking that you forward Mr. Bronson's Notice of Appeal to this
Court. The striking of an appeal or the dismissal of an appeal is
the sole prerogative of the appellate court.
Very truly yours,

~ILED: May 24, 199b
Purcell Bronson (BrOnson) appeals an order of the Court
of Common Pleas of cumberland county (common pleas court) which
denied his petition for leave to proceed in forma pauceris.
On March 7, 1995, Bronson filed a J2}'.:2 U complaint
against "Nurse Newfield" (Defendant), a physician's assistant at
the State Correctional Institution at Camp Hill, Pennsylvania.
Bronson alleged the following:
1. plaintiff Purcell Bronson is a state
pri~oner presently confined at the state
Correction Institution at pittsburgh at 3001
Beaver Ave. pitts. Pa. 15233, and at all times
mentioned in this complaint was temporarilY
confined at the State correctional Institution
at camp Hill, PA. for court purposes.
2. Defendant Newfield is employed at the
state Correctional Institution at camp Hill as
a physician assistance [sic] and at all times
mentioned herein was so employed.
3. plaintiff has a history of skin ailments,
has had skin test done on his skin, and has
received specific medication for these skin
determined that Bronson failed to state a cause of action and that
his complaint was patently frivolous. Pursuant to Pa.R.C.P. No.
240(j) the common pleas court denied the petition and dismissed the
complaint.
On appeal, Bronson contends that he stated a valid cause
of action for medical malpractice against the Defendant and
therefore, his complaint was not frivolous. Bronson argues that'
the common pleas court erred in denying the petition to proceed in
forma DauDeris. Our scope of review is limited to a determination
of whether constitutional rights were violated, whether there was
an abuse of discretion or whether an error of law was committed.
Commonwealth ex. reI. Mindek v. Lillev, 640 A.2d 508 (pa. Cmwlth.
1994).
Petitions to proceed in forma DauDeris in Pennsylvania's
courts of common pleas are governed by Pa.R.~.p. No. 240.
Pa.R.C.p. No. 240(j) reads as follows:
If, simultaneous with the commencement of an
action, or proceeding or the taking of an
appeal, a party has filed a petition for leave
~o proceed in forma pauperis, ~he court prior
to acting upon the petition mav dismiss the
action, proceeding or appeal if the allegation
of poverty is untrue or if it is satisfied
that the action, proceeding or appeal ~
frivolous. (Emphasis added.)
In accordance with Pa.R.C.P. No. 240(j) we must determine
whetner the common pleas court erred when it held that Bronson's
3.
complaint was frivolous. Bronson sought relief for pain and
sUffering that allegedly resulted from the Defendant's failure to
provide adequate medical care. In Estelle v. Gamble, 429 U.S. 97
(1976), our united states' supreme Court held that a prisoner has
a cause of action, where the failure to provide medical care rises
to the level of cruel and unusual punishment offending the Eighth
Amendment. The standard set forth in Estelle, requires that to
state a cognizable claim for inadequate medical care, a prisoner'
must allege deliberate indifference to a serious medical need. A
complaint that a health care professional has misdiagnosed a
prisoner's condition or failed to order certain medical treatment
does not state a valid claim of inadequate medical care rising to
the level of cruel and unusual punishment. Wareham v. Jeffes, 564
A.2d 1314 (pa. cmwlth. 1989).
In the present controversy, Bronson alleged that more
should have been done for his skin condition by way of diagnosis
and treatment. He suggested a number of options that were not
pursued by the Defendant inclUding the prescription of lotion or an
appointment with a physician. The Defendant, in her medical
judgment, determined that Bronson's condition did not warrant such
treatment. Moreover, Bronson did not allege that he had a serious
medical need for treatment. Instead, he alleged that his skin
ailment caused severe itching. The duty owed to prisoners by
attending medical professionals is only violated where there has
been deliberate indifference to serious medical needs. Bronson did

Purcell Bronson (Bronson) appeals an order of the Court
of Common Pleas of Cumberland County (common pleas court) which
denied his petition for leave to proceed in forma DauDeris.
On March 7, 1995, Bronson filed a ~ U complaint
against "Nurse Newfield" (Defendant), a physician'S assistant at
the State correctional Institution at camp Hill, Pennsylvania.
Bronson alleged the following:
1. Plaintiff Purcell Bronson is a state
prisoner presently confined at the state

Beaver Ave. pitts. Pa. 15233, and at all times

9. Defendant's acts and actions constituted

10. Defendant acted willfully and with malice
in depriving plaintiff of medical treatment
and acted outside the scope of her duties and
responsibilities.
11. Plaintiff seeks the relief of compensatory
and punitive damages against defendant in
excess of $20,000.
Complaint, March 7, 1995.
Bronson petitioned to proceed ..in forma DauDeris
simultaneously with the complaint.
The common pleas court
2.
determined that Bronson failed to state a cause of action and that
his complaint was patently frivolous. Pursuant to Pa.R.C.P. No.
240(j) the common pleas court denied the petition and dismissed the
complaint.
On appeal, Bronson contends that he stated a valid cause
of action for medical malpractice against the Defendant and
therefore, his complaint was not frivolous. Bronson argues that'
the common pleas court erred in denying the petition to proceed in
forma DauDeris. Our scope of review is limited to a determination
of whether constitutional rights were violated, whether there was
an abuse of discretion or whether an error of law was committed.
Commonwealth ex. re1. Mindek v. Lillev, 640 A.2d 508 (pa. cmwlth.
1994).
Petitions to proceed in forma DauDeris in Pennsylvania's
courts of common pleas are governed by Pa.R.C.P. No. 240.
Pa.R.C.P. No. 240(j) reads as follows:
If, simultaneous with the commencement of an
action, or proceeding or the taking of an
appeal, a party has filed a petition for leave
to proceed in forma pauperis, the court prior
to acting upon the petition mav dismiss the
action, proceeding or appeal if the allegation
of poverty is untrue or if it is satisfied
that the action, proceeding or appeal ~
frivolous. (Emphasis added.)
In' 'accordance with Pa.R.C.P. No. 240(j) we must determine
whether the common pleas court erred when it held that Bronson's
3.
complaint was frivolous. Bronson sought relief for pain and
sUffering that allegedly resulted from the Defendant's failure to
provide adequate medical care. In Estelle v. Gamble, 429 U.S. 97
(1976), our United states' supreme Court held that a prisoner has
a cause of action, where the failure to provide medical care rises
to the level of cruel and unusual punishment offending the Eighth
Amendment. The standard set forth in Estelle, requires that to
state a cognizable claim for inadequate medical care, a prisoner'
must allege deliberate indifference to a serious medical need. A
complaint that a health care professional has misdiagnosed a
prisoner's condition or failed to order certain medical treatment
does not state a valid claim of inadequate medical care rising to
the level of cruel and unusual punishment. Wareham v. Jeffes, 564
A.2d 1314 (pa. cmwlth. 1989).
In the present controversy, Bronson alleged that more
should have been done for his skin condition by way of diagnosis
and treatment. He suggested a number of options that were not
pursued by the Defendant including the prescription of lotion or an
appointment with a physician. The Defendant, in her medical
judgment, determined that Bronson's condition did not warra~t such
treatment. Moreover, Bronson did not allege that he had a serious
medical need for treatment. Instead, he alleged that his skin
ailment caused severe itching. The duty owed to prisoners by
attending medical professionals is only violated where there has
been deliberate indifference to serious medical needs. Bronson did
4.
I
,
not allege a prima facie case that the Defendant exhibited
deliberate indifference to a serious medical need. He has failed
to state a cause of action.
We hold that because there was no legal basis to
Bronson's complaint, the trial court did not commit an error of
law, or abuse its discretion when it determined that Bronson's suit
was frivolous. Further we hold that the trial court acted within'
the authority granted it by Pa.R.C.P. No. 240(j), when it dismissed
Bronson's petition to proceed in forma DaUDeris. Accordingly, the
common pleas court's order is affirmed.
