Description
Gary Dale Hines, a death row inmate, brought this action under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 against various prison officials employed by the San Quentin State Prison in California. Hines alleges, inter alia, that Steven Pearson, a prison guard, falsely charged him with a rule violation and that Stephen Szmaciarz, a hearing officer, falsely found Hines guilty of the infraction. Hines maintains that both officials acted in retaliation for his prior use of the prison grievance system.*fn1 The parties agreed to try the case before a magistrate Judge. A jury found for Hines against Pearson and Szmaciarz.*fn2 The magistrate Judge then granted Szmaciarz's post verdict motion for judgment as a matter of law but denied Pearson's post trial motions.
