Sanders, an inmate at the Missouri Eastern Correctional Center, filed an action under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 claiming that prison officials were deliberately indifferent to his serious medical needs. Sanders alleged that prison officials forced him to room with a smoker and forced him to sleep on a top bunk, in contravention of doctor's orders. The prison officials moved for summary judgment on the basis of qualified immunity.
