1Opinion of the Court

LOGAN, Circuit Judge.

Pro se plaintiff Kenneth E. Hall, Jr. appeals the district court’s dismissal of his claim that the policies and procedures of the Lexington Assessment and Reception Center (LARC), as well as the actions of LARC employees, violated his First Amendment right to free exercise of religion. He contends that the district court applied the wrong legal standards in dismissing his case, improperly relied on evidence not in the pleadings, and failed to give proper notice and opportunity for discovery.1
