How courts have described this case

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

  • Guilt based “on statements in C.R. [conduct report] by Staff in guilt finding that inmate was disrespectful [and] caused a disruption by his actions.”
  • “[t]he Constitution does not require that the evidence relied upon logically preclude any conclusion but the one reached by the disciplinary board”
  • no liberty interest created by permissive rather than mandatory language
  • disciplinary committee’s reference to conduct report as basis for each decision sufficed when “the only issue presented at the hearing involved an assessment of the relative credibility of the conduct report and the plaintiff’s account of the incident.”
