Defendant's Attorney: Ian P. Anderson

Description: Providence, Rhode Island civil rights lawyer represented Plaitiff, who sued Defendant on a 1983 civil rights violation theory.

Richard Lee Paiva, who is serving
a life sentence in a Rhode Island state prison, challenges the
dismissal of the claims that he brought in the United States
District Court for the District of Rhode Island pursuant to 42
U.S.C. § 1983 against the Rhode Island Department of Corrections
("Department") and its Director. Paiva alleges in these claims
that Department officials made deductions from his inmate account
as a charge for copies of documents that he requested and that, in
consequence, the defendants violated his federal constitutional
rights.

Outcome: We affirm.
