Writ of Certiorari (Civil)

Larson v. Schuetzle , 2006 ND 78, 712 N.W.2d 617
The State Penitentiary warden has authority and control over the penitentiary and its inmates.
Simply because prison inmates retain certain constitutional rights does not mean those rights are not subject to restrictions and limitations.
Maintaining institutional security, safety, and internal order may require limitation or retraction of the retained constitutional rights of convicted prisoners and pretrial detainees.
Prison administrators are entitled to deference in the adoption and execution of policies intended to preserve the security, safety, internal order, and discipline of the prison.
When a prison regulation impinges on inmates' constitutional rights, the regulation is valid if it is reasonably related to legitimate penological interests.
