James Johnson v. Gregory Harmon

Opinion

[UNPUBLISHED]

PER CURIAM.

Arkansas inmate James Johnson filed a 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action against employees of the Arkansas Department of Correction, alleging he was denied due process, equal protection, and freedom of religion. The district court 1 dismissed the action following an evidentiary hearing.

Because Johnson did not make a jury demand, we review the district court’s factual findings for clear error and its conclusions of law de novo. See Choate v. Lock *477 hart, 7 F.3d 1370, 1373 & n. 1 (8th Cir. 1993). After careful review of the record, we find no error in the district court’s well-reasoned decision, and we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
