Terrance Flynn v. Marion Thatcher
Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit

1Per curiam
Terrance Flynn, an Indiana prisoner, appeals the dismissal of his suit brought under 42 U.S.C. § 1983, in which he claims that he is being denied equal protection because he does not receive the same privileges as participants in an inmate “Honor Program.” Because we agree with the district court that Flynn’s compláint fails to state-a claim, we affirm the'dismissal.
