U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 13-3460
U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Arkansas - Helena
[PUBLISHED] [Smith, Author, with Riley, Chief Judge, and Kelly, Circuit
Judge]
Prisoner case - Habeas. Circuit precedent precludes
conditions-of-confinment claims using the vehicle of a habeas petition;
however the district court should have liberally construed Spencer's pro
se habeas petition and given him the option to pursue the claim under
Bivens; remanded for further proceedings.
