Text: 54 Donald Woodruff appeared before the Adjustment Committee on November 29, 1979, in response to a November 27 resident disciplinary report charging him with violating A.R. 804 Secs. (II)(A)-(1) & (4) by cursing and threatening a prison officer. The Committee found him guilty and sentenced him to seven days in segregation, a thirty-day demotion to C-grade status, and loss of yard privileges for thirty days. 55 The basis for the Committee decision was stated as follows: All evidence presented and residents testimony given has convinced the committee the resident is guilty of improper use of language, and disobeying a direct order.Woodruff's claim was dismissed with prejudice by the district court before trial when he threatened to disrupt the proceedings, in part by refusing to wear clothes provided to him.
