How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

  • holding that, on summary judgment, defendants overcame plaintiff’s showing that retaliatory motive played substantial role in adverse action by demonstrating that defendants would have taken same action absent improper reason
  • explaining that substantive due process protects against government action that is arbitrary, conscience shocking, or oppressive in a constitutional sense, but not against government action that is ‘incorrect or ill-advised.”
  • finding inmate’s prehearing confinement in administrative segregation did not deprive him of due process
  • affirming dismissal on summary judgment because correction officer issuing misbehavior report had mixed motives and report “would have been issued on proper grounds alone” because plaintiff “had in fact committed the prohibited conduct”
  • inmate’s substantive due process rights not violated where discipline resulted from his refusal to obey order of correctional officer
  • delay of review of keeplock until hearing on underlying charge “effectively precludes a challenge to the confinement itself’
