Does a federal court have jurisdiction to review a parole denial?

MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from Hemingway v. CDCR, No. 2:17-cv-1792-MCE-EFB P (E.D. Cal. 2018):

Moreover, federal review of a parole denial is limited to the narrow question of whether an inmate has received "fair procedures." Swarthout v. Cooke, 562 U.S. 216 (2011). Under that standard, a federal court may only review whether an inmate has received a meaningful opportunity to be heard and a statement of reasons why parole was denied. Id. at 862-63. Here, there are no allegations showing that plaintiff was denied an opportunity to be heard or denied a statement of reasons for any denial of parole.
