Nachtigall v. Board of Charities and Corrections

MEMORANDUM OPINION AND ORDER OF DISMISSAL

JOHN B. JONES, District Judge.

Plaintiff complains that his civil rights are being violated because his outgoing mail from the South Dakota State Penitentiary is stamped as being sent from there.

Plaintiff claims that this stamp will hurt his mail order business because no one will seriously consider doing business with an inmate. This complaint can be construed liberally as alleging a violation of the First Amendment freedom of speech rights, Fourteenth Amendment due process rights and a right of privacy created by specific constitutional guarantees.
