Hoddle Street murderer Julian Knight is questioning the legality of a tobacco levy imposed on prisoners.
Knight was 19 when he shot dead seven people and injured 19 in the Hoddle Street massacre in Melbourne in 1987.
He was sentenced to a maximum of seven life sentences, with a minimum of 27 years, and will be eligible for parole in 2014.
Knight has been declared a vexatious litigant and is prohibited from starting legal proceedings without court permission.
He told the Victorian Supreme Court on Tuesday that Corrections Victoria did not have the power to impose the levy, in place since 1993.
