ATLANTA DIVISION
BOBBY HARDWICK
i C77-1032A
MRS. MAMIE REESE, Chairwoman,
and MEMBERS OF THE STATE BOARD
OF PARDON AND PAROLE
ORDER OF COURT
Bobby Hardwick, a state prisoner presently incarcerated in
the Georgia Diagnostic and Classification Center at Jackson,
Georgia, brings this action for violation of his civil rights
under 42 U.S.C. § 1983. This action is presently before the Court
on defendants’ motion to dismiss or in the alternative for summary
judgment.
The complaint alleges the denial of constitutionally protected
due process by action of the defendants in denying him parole.
Petitioner alleges that he was denied due process because the
Board (1) did not give him a parole determination hearing; (2)
considewved the nature of his offense in their decision denying
him parole; (3) refused to permit him to look at his file main-
tained by the Board; (4) refused to consider all of the relevant
factors; (5) was racially prejudiced; and (6) used juvenile
records.
The Court finds that even if the facts as presented by
plaintiff are true, his complaint fails to state a claim upon
which relief can be granted because due process rights do not

stated in ‘Brown v. Lundegren, 528 F.2d 1050 (5th Cir. 1976):
In any context where it is asserted that con-
stitutional due process is required, the basic
threshold question is whether there is a ‘grie-
vous loss" of either a liberty or property in-
terest. If there is no such loss, then the second
‘ question of whether the particular challenged
procedure comports with fundamental fairness
is never reached. In short, we find that the

and we therefore do not consid
er whether the pro-
cedures of the parole board den i i

> encod y nstitutional
528 F.2d 1053.
In order to show such a "grevious loss” plaintiff has the
burden to show that he would have been released except for the
faulty parole proceeding. The subjective expectation of parole
or the belief that he would have had a "better chance" for parole
are not so vested as to result in a “arievous loss" if denied
by the parole board.
Accordingly, defendants' motion to dismiss fcr failure to
State a claim is hereby GRANTED.
SO ORDERED, this Z day of October, 1977.

FIFTH CIRCUIT STATEMENT ON PETITIONS
FOR REHEARING OR REHEARING EN BANC
NECESSITY FOR FILING
It is not necessary to file a petition for rehearing in the
Court of Appeals as a prerequisite to the filing of a petition for
certiorari in the Supreme Court of the United States.
PETITION FOR PANEL REHEARING
A petition for rehearing is intended to bring to the attention
of the panel claimed errors of fact or law in the opinion. It is not
> to be used for reargument of the issue previously presented or to
" “ “attack the court's well settled summary calendar procedures.
for rehearing are reviewed by panel members only. Four copies of all
petitions for rehearing shall be filed.
EXTRAORDINARY NATURE OF PETITIONS
FOR REHEARING EN BANC
A petition for rehearing en banc is an extraordinary procedure
which is intended to bring to the attention of the entire court ee
precedent-setting error of exceptional public importance or an opinion
which directly conflicts with prior Supreme Court or Fifth Circuit
precedent. Alleged errors in the determination of state law, or in the
facts of the case (including sufficiency of the evidence), or error
asserted in the misapplication of correct precedent to the facts of the
case, are matters for panel rehearing but not for rehearing en banc.
THE MOST ABUSED PREROGATIVE
Petitions for rehearing en banc are the most abused prerogative
of appellate advocates in the Fifth Circuit. While such petitions were
filed in 15% of the cases decided by this circuit last year, less than
1% of the cases decided by the court are reheard en banc; and most of
the rehearings granted resulted from a request for en banc reconsidera-
tion by a judge of the court initiated independent of any petition.
PETITION FOR REHEARING EN BANC
Twenty-five eee of arent peettton Segeees tg rears en banc
shall be filed. The tition shall co! a 1
no case refer to or adopt by reference any matter from other briefs or
— motions in the case. The form and contents of the petition are set out
in Local Rule 12(b).
Under Fifth Circuit Local Rule 12, counsel are required to file
a written statement setting forth why, in their studied profess)onal
judgment, the case should be reheard en banc, listing either the Fifth
Circuit or Supreme Court cases with which the decision conflicts or the
questions of exceptional importance which would require en banc considera-
tion. Therefore, unless these rigid standards of Federal Rule of
Appellate Procedure 35 are met, the duty of counsel is fully discharged
without the filing of such a petition.
RESPONSE TO PETITIONS
No response to a petition for rehearing or rehearing en banc
should be filed unless requested by the court.
TIME AND FORM--EXTENSIONS
The petition (panel or en banc) must be filed within 14 days
after the date of the opinion. Counsel should not request extensions
of time except for the most compelling reasong. Printing delays will
not be considered a sufficient reason, as clear and legible reproduced
copies of typewritten petitions are authorized in the form prescribed
by Rule 40(b) F.R.A.P.
ANE mete +
RULE 12. EN BANC
Ww VA
(a) Procedure. A Suggestion for a hearing or rehearing en banc may
be made as provided in F.R.A.P. 35 and herein or by any judge of the
court in active service on his own motion.
The court en banc shall consist of all circuit judges in regular
active service of the circuit. A circuit judge of the circuit who
has retired from regular active service shall also be competent to
sit as a judge of the court en banc in the rehearing of a case or con-
troversy if that judge sat on the panel at the original hearing thereof.
See also Fed. R. App. P. 35, 28 U.S.C. $46(c), and Allen v. Johnson,
391 F.2d 527 (Sth Cir. aJeays. tf rehearing en banc is granted, every
Party shall furnish to the clerk 15 additional copies of every brief
the party has previously filed.
.
(b) Form of Suggestion. Twenty-five copies of every petition suggesting
rehearing en banc shall be filed. The petition shall be complete in it-
self and shall in no case refer to or adopt by reference any matter from
other briefs or motions in the case. It shall contain the following
items, in order:
(1) The certificate of interested persons required for briefs
by Local Rule 13(£)(1);
(2) Where the petitioner for rehearing en banc is represented
by counsel, one or both of the following statements of counsel
is applicable:
I express a belief, based on a reasoned and studied
professional judgment, that the panel decision is con-
trary to the following decision(s) of the United States
Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit {or the Supreme
Court of the United States], and that consideration by
the full court is necessary to secure and maintain uni-
formity of decisions in this court: [citing specifically
the case or cases]
I express a belief, based on a reasoned and studied
professional judgment, that this appeal involves one or
more questions of exceptional importance: [set forth
each question in one sentence]
Attorney of record for
Counsel are reminded that in every case the duty of counsel is
fully discharged without filing a suggestion for rehearing en banc
unless the case meets the rigid standards of F.R.A.P. 35(a).
(3) Table of contents and citations;
(4) A statement of the issue Or issues asserted to merit en banc
consideration. It will rarely occur that these will be the same
as those appropriate for panel rehearing. A petition for rehear-
ing en banc is an extraordinary procedure which is intended to
bring to the attention of the entire court a precedent-setting
error of exceptional public importance or an opinion which directly
conflicts with prior Supreme Court or Fifth Circuit precedent.
Alleged errors in the determination of state law, cr in the facts
of the case (including sufficiency of the evidence), or error
asserted in the misapplication of correct precedent to the facts
of the case, are matters for panel rehearing but not for rehearing
ea banc;
(5) A statement of the course of Proceedings and disposition of
the case;
(6) A statement of any facts necessary to the argument oi the issues;
(7) Argument and authorities. These shall concern only the issues
required by paragraph (4) hereof and shall address specifically,
mot only their merit, but why they are contended to be worthy of
en banc consideration:

Dear Mrs. Elliott:
As you requested, I have reviewed Bobby Hardwick's case
in order to respond to your questions regarding his status
and the possibility of any consideration for release at
this time.
Our records show that Mr. Hardwick was sentenced in Richmond
County, Georgia on January 8, 1970 to serve life and ten
years consecutive for Armed Robbery and Aggravated Assault.
“In I973 he receiyed two more life sentences bs
ng ; Ty: wces for aggravated assault, all
OL utd to each other and consecutive to the previous
sentences. Even with these con D e sentences, Mr.
Qre ~Hardwick must be reviewed for parole (according to Georgia
aS law) after serving seven years in confinement.
wet His first life sentence was computed from December 30, 1969;
therefore, he is to be considered for parole during December
1976. Since he is serving a life sentence, Mr. Hardwick does
not earn good time credit, and he does not have a discharge
date. If he is ever released, it must be granted by this
Board (or Court action).
A review of the facts surrounding Mr. Hardwick's case did not
indicate that any basis for exceptional consideration exists.
fhe Board does not alter the parole eligibility date, which
is set by law, except under very unusuel circumstances when
the Board is convinced that a serious miscarriage of justice
has occurred. There is no indication that this occurred in
Mr. Hardwick's case.

* Holl-Hole’ Ruling: Prison Reform To Follow?
By SHERRY HOWARD
Tetegrash Staff Writer
Bohby Hardwick dubbed the H-
House a “hell hole.”
Loon urnving at the disciplinary
wing at the Georgia Diagnostic and
Classification Center im Jackson,
Hardwick came face to face with
“what he later described as “the most
cruel and unusual extreme maximum
ywcunty ever conceived by any
giate
thoaates were shipd to the H-
1, without a hearing, Hardwick
said. Some of their mail was opened.
Their books and magazines were cen-
sored. They were subjected to strip
searches and were kept at bay with
stun guns.
H-House was cruel and unusual
punishment, Hardwick wrote a feder-
al judge in Macon. Hardwick ts serv-
ing time for armed robbery.
U.S. District Judge Wilbur D.
Owens Jr subsequently agreed. More
than three years after Hardwick filed
a $10 million suit against the state,
Owens recently issued @ decision that
could reach far beyond the prison sys
tem in Georgia. ,
“This is first decision in the
country that says this kind of behav-
tor modification program 1s unconstt-
tutional,” said Thomas West, an At-
lanta attomey who argued the Jack-
son case for the American Civil Lib
erties Union.
“The H House is no longer a dump
ing ground for people the system
doesn't like,” West said. The ruling
sets up a “kind of due process proce-
dure.”
THAT DUE PROCESS procedure
translates into a hearing to which all
prisoners are entitied before they're
sent to the diagnostic center, a 1,-
1%}man maximum security prison
about 40 miles north of Macon

nels inmates to other penal institu-
tions in Georgia.

judge's order. They directed inquines
to the state law office.
OWENS ORDERED that prisoners
not be locked away in H-House with-
out a hearing, in contradiction to a
U.S. Supreme Court ruling that prison
officials don't have to give a reason
for transferring prisoners between
prisons, West noted.
The judge ruled that “H-House just
isn’t another prison. The courts look
at exactly what they are doing with
them in H-House.”
What the state was doing, Hard-
wick and other Jackson inmates said
in suits filed in federal court, was
placing them into the H-House for in-
definite periods. In most cases prison
— decided if they should be re-
“You cannot put someone in prison
under complete control of prison offi-
cials without doing damage to the
prisoner and prison officials,” said
Robert Goldberg, an Atlanta attorney
who assisted West.
“The damage to the prisoner is
that his life is controlled by someone
else. You can't give that much power
to anybody.”
Goldberg noted that even prison
ounselors testified that ¢ were

by wardens in the state who would
not accept them imto their prisons.
The prisoners in H-House com-
plained about the catwalk (@ square
porthole covered with metal grates
used by officials to watch and com-
municate with inmates), tight secur-
ity and the use of stun guns, hand-
Officials used stun aimed at
inmates’ heads, to e them into
performing some small task, Hard-
wick wrote to the judge.
OWENS ORDERED the state to
close the catwalk, increase the per
ods of exercise for prisoners and limit
the use of debilitating devices.
“Jackson was a subtle kind of
cruelty,” Goldberg said. “Reidsville
is a lot more openly racist and a lot
more brutal im a real cruel sort of
way.
“We didn't show many beatings (at
the Jackson center). They put people
into cells and (left) them there.”

Georgia Diagnostic & Classification Center
Jackson, Georgia
You will be glad to know that we did have the hearing before the
Parole Board today. Appearing in your behalf, in addition to
your attorney, were your mother, your wife, daughter and sister.
Dear Mr. Hardwick: All of them spoke eleoquently in your behalf as did your attorney.
It was a FULL BOARD HEARING. We introduced various documents in
your behalf, including a letter to the Board from Dr. Yost and
a letter from your representative there at the Diagnostic Center.
Your friend, Rev. S. T. Willingham was supposed to have appeared
at the hearing, however, he did not make it. He called this
afternoon after I had returned to my office. He said that he was
going over to the Board and talk with the Board inasmuch as Tues-
day is regular meeting day. One can not have a full hearing
without arranging it in advance.
Recently your case was thoroughly reviewed for parole on its merit
in accordance with Georgia law, and you were not among those granted
parole at this time. Your case has been set for reconsideration in
December of 1978. Factors which contributed in the Board's decision
are your circumstance and nature of offense, pattern of criminal
behavior, and institutional disciplinary record.
I certainly wish that someone
