OPINION
BRUCE I. FOX, Bankruptcy Judge:
The plaintiff, Larry D. Clemens, is a prison inmate who has filed a complaint in this bankruptcy case seeking a determination that the debt owed to him by the debtor, a former prison guard, is nondischargeable by virtue of 11 U.S.C. § 523. Although the specific nondischargeability provision by which the plaintiff seeks to proceed is not expressly stated, he alleges that the debt arose from “willful and malicious injuries inflicted by the debtor.” Thus it would appear that the plaintiff is relying upon 11 U.S.C. § 523(a)(6).
