Description
Michael William English, a federal prisoner incarcerated at the Federal Correctional Center at Butner, North Carolina, brought an action in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida. Although he styled the action as a petition for habeas relief under 28 U.S.C. § 2241, he also claimed that he was being subjected to unconstitutional prison conditions. The Florida court transferred the action to the Eastern District of North Carolina. The district court ordered English to particularize his claims, and English filed an amended complaint. The district court dismissed the action without prejudice to English's right to refile a non-frivolous complaint, and English appealed (No. 90-6160). English also moved for a certificate of probable cause to appeal, and the district court denied the motion; English appealed that denial (No. 90-6183). We affirm the dismissal of the prison conditions claims on the reasoning stated by the district court. English v. United States, CA-90-477-HC (E.D.N.C. Sept. 25, 1990).
