Cal. 2009) (finding possible application of continuing violation doctrine to prisoner's due process claim, provided that it was "premised on a systemic policy or practice of discrimination . . .because such policy continually deters the plaintiff from seeking full rights or threatens to adversely affect the plaintiff in the future"); K'Napp v. Hickman, 2008 WL 495755, *6 (E.D. Cal. 2008) (applying continuing violation doctrine to find no statute of limitations bar to prisoner's claims of "ongoing violations as the result of a 'campaign' or policy of retaliation that persists 'unabated'"); Bruce v.
