Shabazz v. Arkansas Department of Correction

U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit
Shabazz v. Arkansas Department of Correction, 268 F. App'x 487 (8th Cir. 2008)

Shabazz v. Arkansas Department of Correction

Opinion

[UNPUBLISHED]

PER CURIAM.

Arkansas inmate Malik Shabazz appeals the district court’s 1 final judgment imposing a permanent injunction against defendants on his claim under the Religious Land Use and Institutionalized Persons Act, 42 U.S.C. § 2000cc-l. Shabazz challenges the district court’s rulings on several motions, and he argues that the court should have held a hearing to explore other options for injunctive relief against defendants. Having carefully reviewed the parties’ arguments and the record on appeal, we agree with the district court’s rulings for the reasons stated by the court, we find no merit to Shabazz’s argument that he was entitled to an additional hearing, and we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.

. The Honorable James M. Moody, United States District Judge for the Eastern District of Arkansas, adopting the report and recommendations of the Honorable J. Thomas Ray, United States Magistrate Judge for the Eastern District of Arkansas.
