The Court of Appeals affirmed. Plaintiff, a prisoner in the New York State prison system serving a felony sentence, was held for an extensive period in administrative segregation in three different institutions.
Defendants claim that they are entitled to qualified immunity.
Defendants contend that the jury's finding should be set aside and a new trial ordered because there were deficiencies in the conduct of the trial, including improper charges on certain questions to the jury. While some of defendants' arguments are not insubstantial, they were not clearly or properly brought to the trial judge's attention. As plaintiff acknowledges, this case depends on its own particular facts. We find no grounds for reversal.
