No. 02-40508 Summary Calendar

ROGER EUGENE GRESHAM,

Petitioner-Appellant,

versus

ERNEST CHANDLER, Warden, United States Penitentiary,

Respondent-Appellee.

-------------------- Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas USDC No. 1:01-CV-120 -------------------- October 4, 2002

Before DAVIS, DUHÉ, and DeMOSS, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:1

Roger Eugene Gresham, inmate # 29072-077, appeals the denial

of his petition for habeas relief filed pursuant to

. Gresham’s claim that prison officials failed to protect him

from another inmate is not cognizable under

. See

Spina v. Aaron,

(5th Cir. 1987). Gresham’s

claim that he was denied due process at a disciplinary hearing also

is without merit inasmuch as the hearing met with the requirements

1 Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR. R. 47.5.4. set forth in Wolff v. McDonnell,

(1974).

Last, Gresham’s claims that prison officials failed to follow their

own policies, without more, does not constitute a violation of due

process. Myers v. Klevenhagen,

(5th Cir. 1996).

Thus, the district court did not err when it denied Gresham’s

petition. Henson v. U.S. Bureau of Prisons,

(5th

Cir. 2000).

AFFIRMED.
