MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from Davis v. Molina, Case No. 1:14-cv-1554 LJO-BAM (PC) (E.D. Cal. 2018):

protected conduct was a "substantial factor" or "motivating reason" for the adverse action; (4) the adverse action chilled the inmate's exercise of First Amendment rights; and (5) the adverse action did not reasonably advance a legitimate correctional goal. Rhodes v. Robinson, 408 F.3d 559, 567-68 (9th Cir. 2005) (footnote omitted); Brodheim v. Cry, 584 F.3d 1262, 1269-72 (9th Cir. 2009).
