Prisons — prison discipline

Kendric Winters appeals from a circuit court order denying his petition for a writ of certiorari challenging a prison disciplinary decision. Winters contends that the respondents: (1) failed to provide him with sufficient notice of temporary lock-up (TLU) under Wis. Admin. Code § DOC 303.11(5); (2) failed to provide him with the evidence used against him at his due process hearing, contrary to Wis. Admin. Code §§ DOC 303.81(5) and 303.86(4); (3) violated due process and their own rules by relying on anonymous, unsigned statements; (4) erred by relying on unreliable confidential informant statements; and (5) violated due process by submitting a supporting affidavit after the conclusion of the hearing. Winters also contends that Wis. Admin. Code § DOC 303.86(2)(a) is unconstitutional as applied to him and that the evidence in his favor was stronger than the evidence against him. We reject these contentions and affirm.  This opinion will not be published.
