Summary
In Turner, the Supreme Court delineated four factors relevant to determining whether a prison regulation infringes on a prisoner's constitutional rights: (1) is there a valid, rational correlation between the prison regulation and the legitimate governmental interest advanced; (2) are there alternative means of exercising the rights that remain available to the prisoner; (3) what is the impact of an accommodation in favor of the inmate on prison staff, other prisoners, and the allocation of prison resources generally; and (4) do alternatives exist that would accommodate the prisoner's rights at little cost to valid prison interests.
