Prisoner Plaintiff Stated Cause of Action Based on Prison's Depriving Him of Hygiene Items

By Shari Allison

ADVERTISEMENTS
Whittington v. Ortiz, 2009 WL 74471 (1/13/09) (unpub'd) - The prisoner plaintiff had set forth a ground for relief by alleging that the prison authorities deprived him of hygiene items: soap, toothpaste, toothbrushes and razors and, thus, caused him physical problems. His lawsuits took up so much money to litigate, [making copies, etc.], that his prison account did not have enough money left to pay for the hygiene items. When he asked for the items the prison responded that he was spending too much on litigation or that, because he received wages, he was not entitled to free hygiene items.
