The district court granted summary judgment for the defendants. The court held that the prison officials' decision to prevent the inmate from attending a ceremony in the prison chapel conducted by a Catholic cardinal was reasonable and therefore did not violate the inmate's First Amendment rights to petition the government for redress of grievances. The court found that a corrections department policy that required all inmates being admitted to a solitary housing unit (SHU) to undergo a strip frisk search to assure they had no contraband contraband, in international law, goods necessary or useful in the prosecution of war that a belligerent may lawfully seize from a neutral who is attempting to deliver them to the enemy. was reasonable and did not violate the inmate's Fourth Amendment right to be free from unreasonable searches.
