In a suit alleging excessive force brought by an inmate in the custody of Pennsylvania's Department of Corrections at the State Correctional Institution at Rockview, the District Court's grant of summary judgement in favor of defendant is vacated where inmate's attempts to avail himself of SCI Rockview's administrative processes and the prison's noncompliance with its own deadline satisfied the Prison Litigation Reform Act (PLRA).
