Heading: Adequate Administrative Remedy

Text: The district court concluded that Mr. Allen failed to state a claim against Officer Reynolds for deprivation of property without due process because Mr. Allen had an adequate post-deprivation remedy through the prison grievance system. The court noted that Mr. Allen had alleged that he had filed a grievance but that he had not alleged facts, as he must, to show that the process was faulty or unresponsive. See R., Vol. 1, at 88-89 (citing Hudson v. Palmer, 468 U.S. 517, 533, 536 n.15 (1984), and Freeman v. Dep’t of Corr., 949 F.2d 360, 362 (10th Cir. 1991)). We agree with the district court’s analysis. Mr. Allen’s argument on appeal that he gained no relief through the grievance process is insufficient to show that the process was unavailable or inadequate to him.
