PER CURIAM.

Booker L. Robinson appeals from a judgment of the district court awarding Robinson only nominal damages for a violation of his right to procedural due process at a prison disciplinary hearing. Robinson contends that the defendants failed to prove that the denial of procedural due process did not alter the outcome of the disciplinary proceeding. Robinson also alleges that the district court erred in dismissing his claim against defendant Mason.
