Can a plaintiff bring a claim for retaliation against a prison officer for the loss of personal property due to his actions in a civil case?

To the extent plaintiff is attempting to make a claim that the property losses were the result of retaliation, he fails to allege any facts to establish such a claim. To state a claim for retaliation under the First Amendment, plaintiff must state facts showing the following five basic elements: "(1) An assertion that a state actor took some adverse action against an inmate (2) because of (3) that prisoner's protected conduct, and that such action (4) chilled the inmate's exercise of his First Amendment rights, and (5) the action did not reasonably advance a legitimate correctional goal."
