The following excerpt is from Ardds v. Knipp, No. 2:14-cv-960-KJM-EFB P (E.D. Cal. 2016):
In the context of a disciplinary proceeding where a liberty interest is at stake9, it is well-established that due process requires an inmate to receive: (1) advance written notice of the disciplinary charges; (2) an opportunity, when consistent with institutional safety and correctional goals, to call witnesses and present documentary evidence in his defense; and (3) a written statement by the factfinder of the evidence relied on and the reasons for the disciplinary action. Wolff v. McDonnell, 418 U.S. 539, 563-67 (1974).
