MEMORANDUM OPINION

KAPLAN, District Judge.

The plaintiff in this case alleges that correctional facility employees violated his federal constitutional rights by depriving him of the opportunity to present witnesses in his defense at a prison disciplinary hearing. He seeks a declaratory judgment and monetary damages. The matter is now before the Court on the defendants’ motion to dismiss on the grounds that plaintiffs claims are time-barred and that defendants have immunity insofar as plaintiff seeks money damages from them in their official capacities.
