Correction Commissioner V. Smith

The Court ruled in favor of the appellant, and the decision is described as follows:

The summary of the judgment claims it had improperly granted the respect for the plaintiff claims for the paper restriction inside his cell and with having his First Amendment rights violated. After the disciplinary proceeding, the subject of the plaintiff had deprived his protected of aspects of the district court dismissing his disciplinary proceedings. As for the plaintiff’s he received for merit for his claim of having his rights being violated in the California Department of Corrections. His case wasn't continued based on the judges ruling because there wasn't any evidence for him to provide that his rights were violated. I think this is a tough ruling because it's like a man vs the jailhouse which he has no other witnesses while the jailhouse officers could be witnesses for the guards that went into the cell to take down all the paper off the plaintiff's wall. While he claims that his first amendment rights were violated, the retaliation for the plaintiff is that”the Eighth Amendment requires only that prison officials not be"deliberately indifferent" to the safety of their inmates.”Overall this plaintiff had a couple of other cases that he took to court which he stated in most of them that his constitutional rights were violated in all of his

On the morning of January 8th 1962, the Supreme Court received mail from prisoner 003826 of Florida State Prison, also known as Clarence Earl Gideon. In the envelope contained a hand written letter with questionable grammar from Gideon claiming that he was denied a fair trial due to the absence of a lawyer. Gideon’s writ of certiorari was an in forma pauperis petition or pauper’s petition. Due to the fact that most paupers’ petitions are from inmates who do not have the legal means to properly file a certiorari, the Court had special methods of handling cases such as Gideon’s. Paupers’ petitions according to Justice Frankfurter were “almost unintelligible and certainly do not present a clear statement of issues necessary

Two Muslim inmates filed a complaint in federal court, which they argued that the policy violated their constitutional rights to free exercise of religion as guaranteed by the First Amendment. The district court held, however, that the policy was constitutional: 1) it plausibly advanced the goals and security, order and rehabilitation and 2) no less alternatives could be adopted without compromising the institutional objective. The third Circuit Court of Appeals agreed that the prison policy was valid if: 1) if it served the penological goal of security 2) no judicious methods existed by which (inmates) religious rights could be housed without creating a bona fide safety problem.

The reader agrees with the Lockhart’s decision because of the facts that he found. Established on the lack of counsel within the plan administration and the assessment of the lack of justifiable decision criteria.

The project was organized with the goal that people were interested in "more discipline than they may have been if the system had not been founded. The project had an ethical, lawful and established commitment to endeavor to guarantee consistency in the activity of prosecutorial attentiveness, and disregards the necessities of equivalent assurance if one neglects to try. Lockhart also believed that the program should not induce

Mondae, while the current approach to prisoner’s rights through lawsuits certainly is taken advantage of, it remains necessary as a viable option for the rare occasions for which it is intended. Moreover, in severe cases of gross negligence or deliberate indifference a lawsuit may be the only resort an inmate has at their disposal to garner the attention of high-level administration to make them aware of such violations. Conversely, the system is negatively affected in the wake of every frivolous lawsuit, resulting in legitimate claims bearing less weight. Our text describes frivolous lawsuits as “lawsuits with no foundation in fact. They are generally brought for publicity, political, or other reasons not related to law” (Schmalleger & Smykla,

Whether there is a reasonable relationship between a restriction and a legitimate penological interest is determined through: 1) what is the connection between the restriction and the legitimate interest of the institution? 2) What other alternatives exist for the inmate to

A prisoner’s right to have access to the courts is considered by most to be their most important right, “because it is the right upon which all other rights turn” (Carlson & Garrett, 2008). Without this right, most prisoners would not be able to appeal anything or file lawsuits challenging poor conditions, policies, or violations of their rights (Carlton & Garrett, 2008). “These rights include the Eighth Amendment right to be protected against cruel and unusual punishment, the First Amendment rights to freedom of speech and religion, and the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendment rights to equal protection under the law and to due process protections in prison disciplinary hearings” (Carlson & Garrett, 2008).

Courts will allow some restrictions on a prisoner’s access to legal resources in order to accommodate legitimate administrative concerns, such as maintaining security and internal order, preventing the introduction of contraband, preventing the domination of the library by regular users, and observing budgetary constraints. In the absence of a legitimate administrative concern, however, prisoners may not be hindered from gaining access to the judicial process. Inmates who have been denied access to legal materials have not necessarily suffered a constitutional deprivation when they are confined for only a short period of time.
