DECISION AND ORDER

VAN ANTWERPEN, District Judge.

Several inmates at Berks County Prison instituted this class action on November 9, 1994, alleging that the Prison's policy of charging inmates for medical care deprives Berks County Prison inmates of their civil rights. Plaintiffs bring suit under 42 U.S.C. §§ 1983, 1988 and the Eighth Amendment of the United States Constitution. Neither party requested a trial by jury.
