Description
Jerome Black, Texas prisoner #634349, appeals the district courts dismissal of his civil rights claims as frivolous and for failure to state a claim under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B)(i) & (ii). Black argues that the district court erred in dismissing his claims of due process violations during a disciplinary hearing pursuant to Sandin v. Conner, 515 U.S. 472 (1995). He contends that Texas created a liberty interest by enacting certain Texas Department of Criminal Justice-Institutional Division (TDCJ-ID) procedural rules governing prison disciplinary hearings. He also argues that no evidence supported the disciplinary action taken against him.
