Americans in government custody do not forfeit their constitutional rights at the prison gate — but the constitutional protections available to incarcerated people are significantly narrowed by the Turner v. Safley reasonableness standard, the PLRA's demanding exhaustion requirements, and the deliberate indifference standard's high threshold. The constitutional warrior who represents prisoners must command the complete specialized doctrine that governs rights within the institution. The Constitutional Prisoner Rights Warrior is Volume LXV of Wayne Richard Evangelista's Constitutional Law Series, delivering the complete practitioner's guide to constitutional prison litigation. Wayne Richard Evangelista covers the full prisoner rights landscape: the PLRA's exhaustion requirement under Woodford v. Ngo, Ross v. Blake, and Albino v. Baca — including the defenses of futility, unavailability, and improper exhaustion; the Turner v. Safley four-factor reasonableness test and its application to First Amendment claims involving mail, publications, speech, and association; the right of access to courts from Bounds v. Smith through Lewis v. Casey; RLUIPA's substantial burden standard and the Holt v. Hobbs grooming case; ADA Title II and Section 504 in correctional settings after Pennsylvania Department of Corrections v. Yeskey and United States v. Georgia; conditions of confinement and deliberate indifference advanced practice under Farmer v. Brennan and Brown v. Plata; due process in disciplinary proceedings under Wolff v. McDonnell and Sandin v. Conner; and the complete PLRA damages limitations, physical injury requirement, and three-strikes rule. For every lawyer who believes that the Constitution follows people through the prison gate, this is the complete guide.
