GABRIEL L. VASQUEZ, Applicant-Appellant, v. STATE OF IOWA, Respondent-Appellee.
Gabriel L. Vasquez, Newton, pro se. Thomas J. Miller, Attorney General, and H. Loraine Wallace, Assistant Attorney General, for appellee State.
Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Jasper County, Bradley McCall, Judge. Gabriel Vasquez appeals the district court's denial of his pro se postconviction-relief application. AFFIRMED. Gabriel L. Vasquez, Newton, pro se. Thomas J. Miller, Attorney General, and H. Loraine Wallace, Assistant Attorney General, for appellee State. Considered by Danilson, C.J., and Mullins and Bower, JJ. MULLINS, Judge.
Gabriel Vasquez appeals the district court's denial of his pro se postconviction-relief (PCR) application. In his PCR application, Vasquez appealed the administrative law judge's (ALJ) hearing decision finding Vasquez violated a prison rule, for which Vasquez was sanctioned with one day of cell confinement. As a result of the incident, Vasquez also lost his prison job. Vasquez concedes he did not lose any earned time as a result of the proceedings before the ALJ. We affirm the district court's finding the discipline imposed did not result in a substantial deprivation of Vasquez's liberty or property interests and thus dismissal of the PCR application was warranted. See Iowa Code § 822.2 (2015); Wycoff v. Iowa Dist. Ct. for Lee Cty., 580 N.W.2d 786, 787 (Iowa 1998).
We affirm without further opinion. See Iowa Ct. Rule 21.26(1)(a), (c), (d) and (e).
AFFIRMED.
