United States Ninth Circuit


Lane v. Swain, 17-55578

Affirmed the denial of a federal inmate's three habeas corpus petitions challenging the revocation of good time credits as punishment for sending threatening letters from prison. He argued, unsuccessfully, that the relevant prison rule against making threats was so broad and vague as to violate his rights under the First Amendment.
