FINAL JUDGMENT

HUGHES, District Judge.

1. The court adopts the memorandum and recommendation of the United States magistrate judge signed September 10, 1993.

2. The corroborating evidence of Spauld-ing’s guilt that was not considered by the disciplinary hearing officer is properly considered as evidence that the officer’s decision was not manifestly unjust. Even without considering that evidence, the hearing satisfied constitutional standards.

3. William E. Spaulding, Ill’s petition for a writ of habeas corpus is denied.

4. Final judgment is entered for James A. Collins.
