Description

At issue in these appeals by two petitioner-inmates is the sufficiency of written reports -- offered as substantial evidence of petitioners violation of a disciplinary rule prohibiting participation in violent group conduct -- charging that all inmates present in the mess hall at dinnertime actively participated in a riot. We conclude that, without some specificity as to the offensive conduct attributed to petitioners, these reports alone did not constitute substantial evidence of guilt, and the orders confirming the administrative determinations should therefore be reversed.
