Wells v. Hamblen County Tennessee8/22/2005
ing communication by a police officer to a potential victim or the victim's family would remove the protection. The formulation adopted by our Supreme Court does not rest on promises or verbal assurances, and words alone will not create an exception to the public duty doctrine.
Because no action by Deputy Snow affirmatively undertaking to protect Matthew was alleged, the special duty exception is not present. Consequently, the public duty doctrine precludes liability and the action was properly dismissed.
We affirm the trial court. Costs are taxed to appellant, Kim Wells.
