132262P.pdf 08/08/2014 Vincent Walls v. Dave Tadman
U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 13-2262
U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Iowa - Des Moines
[PUBLISHED] [Smith, Author, with Colloton and Gruender, Circuit Judges]
Civil Case - civil rights. In claim that prison officials failed to
protect him from three attacks by other prisoners, the district court did
not err in granting defendants summary judgment. Record shows that prison
officials offered Walls protective custody and asked him if he wanted to
report enemy situation, to which Walls declined. He denied existence of
potential problems. Record does not show negligence, much less deliberate
indifference.
