US Court of Appeals for the First Circuit - 89 F.3d 824 (1st Cir. 1996) June 24, 1996

APPEAL FROM THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE DISTRICT OF RHODE ISLAND [Hon. Ronald R. Lagueux, U.S. District Judge ]

Walter R. Simpson, Jr. on brief pro se.

Michael B. Grant, Senior Legal Counsel, Rhode Island Department of Corrections, on brief for appellees.

D.R.I.

AFFIRMED.

Before SELYA, CYR and LYNCH, Circuit Judges.

Per Curiam.


We affirm the judgment substantially for the reasons recited in the magistrate-judge's report dated August 11, 1995. See also Figueroa v. Vose, 81 F.3d 147, 1996 WL 136891 (1st Cir. 1996) (per curiam) (table). Inasmuch as plaintiff did not incur any loss of good-time credits, we voice no opinion as to whether such a sanction might give rise to a liberty interest under Sandin v. Conner, 115 S. Ct. 2293 (1995).

Affirmed. See Loc. R. 27.1.
