Annotate this Case
US Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit - 104 F.3d 364 (8th Cir. 1996) Submitted Nov. 26, 1996. Filed Dec. 3, 1996

Before BEAM, HANSEN, and MORRIS SHEPPARD ARNOLD, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM.


Arkansas prisoner Carl Prince appeals the district court's1  dismissal as frivolous of his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 claim for damages after a disciplinary action was administratively expunged. Having carefully reviewed the record, we affirm the judgment because we have recently concluded that administrative review is part of due process and administrative reversal of a disciplinary sanction cures any earlier due process violations. Wycoff v. Nichols, 94 F.3d 1187, 1189 (8th Cir. 1996).
