Richard E. Fowler appeals from a decision dismissing his civil rights action.

Fowler brought this action for monetary damages against Charles Wolff, Warden of the Nebraska Penal Complex; John Greenholtz, Chairman of the Board of Parole; Harold Smith, a member of the Board of Parole; and James Lyon, Records Officer of the Nebraska Penal Complex. Fowler alleged that the defendants had violated his constitutional rights: first, by paroling, rather than releasing, him from prison on January 3, 1971; and second, by failing to give him a hearing when his parole was revoked on January 10, 1971.
