Description
The principal issue in this pro se appeal is whether state prison officials satisfied due process requirements when they held an inmate in administrative confinement for two days. The pro se plaintiff, Jory Lowrance a/k/a YaQub Shamsid-Deen, appeals from a judgment of the United States District Court for the Northern District of New York, DiBianco, M.J., granting summary judgment in favor of the defendants and dismissing Shamsid-Deens complaint alleging that the defendants violated 42 U.S.C. § 1983. All of the defendants, Correction Officer Achtyl, Sergeant Skrocki, Sergeant Lay, Lieutenant Inserra, Lieutenant Mutz, Correction Officer Sroka, and Acting Deputy Superintendent for Security Cunningham, worked at Shawangunk Correctional Facility (Shawangunk) at the time of the incidents giving rise to Shamsid-Deens claims. We find Shamsid-Deens contentions to be unpersuasive and we affirm the judgment of the magistrate Judge.
