SUHRHEINRICH, Circuit Judge.
In this appeal of a prisoner’s civil rights claim under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 we consider whether a Michigan policy directive that prohibits free advertising, fliers, and other bulk mail is constitutional. Also at issue is whether a state prison official who enforced the policy is entitled to qualified immunity. The district court held that the prohibition was unconstitutional and that the defendant was not entitled to qualified immunity. We RE-YERSE.
