Description
This is a pro se appeal by appellant Jordan from the action of the District Court dismissing his civil rights action under § 1983. Judge Joiner held on uncontested facts that defendant's motion under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b)(5) should be granted since appellant's complaint failed to state a claim under which relief could be granted. Essentially, plaintiff asserted that he was subjected to three days of top-lock isolation as a penalty for failing to stop playing cards when ordered to do so by a corrections officer at the State Prison of Southern Michigan. His complaint sought $50.00 of compensatory damages for each day of confinement to his cell. He also sought punitive damages of $150,000 against the corrections officer who brought the charge and the hearing officer who found him guilty of disobeying a direct order and ordered the penalty of three days of top-lock confinement with credit for the three days already served.
