James Oliver Lovett, Texas prisoner # 671501, appeals the district court’s dismissal of his 28 U.S.C. § 2254 petition for writ of habeas corpus in which he argued that his due process rights were violated in connection with a prison disciplinary proceeding. Lovett was found guilty of soliciting assistance from a medical staff member to violate prison rules by requesting non-prescription cold medication from the pill window and lost 90 days of accrued good-time credits.

Lovett challenges the district court’s determination that he failed to state a cognizable ground for habeas relief. Specifically, Lovett argues that he was denied due process when he lost accrued good-time credits as punishment for conduct which he did not know was proscribed. Further, where a liberty interest is at stake, Lovett argues that sufficiency review is proper.

The district court correctly determined that Lovett had a constitutionally protected liberty interest in the loss of his accrued good-time credits. See Malchi v. Thaler, 211 F.3d 953, 957-58 (5th Cir. 2000). However, the district court erred when it determined that Lovett failed to state a cognizable ground for habeas relief. *226 Lovett has consistently maintained that his due process rights were violated when he was punished for violating a rule of which he had no notice. This court has held that it is a due process violation to punish a prisoner for behavior that he could not have known was prohibited. Reeves v. Pettcox, 19 F.3d 1060, 1061 (5th Cir. 1994); see also Adams v. Gunnell, 729 F.2d 362, 369-70 (1984) (imposition of severe punishment for conduct the prisoner could not have known was against prison rules violates basic due process). Further, although judicial review of a prison disciplinary proceeding is extremely limited, due process requires that the findings be supported by some evidence in the record. See Superintendent, Massachusetts Correctional Inst. v. Hill, 472 U.S. 445, 454, 105 S.Ct. 2768, 86 L.Ed.2d 356 (1985).

Therefore, the district court’s judgment is VACATED and the case is REMANDED to the district court for further proceedings consistent with this opinion.

VACATED AND REMANDED.
