The following excerpt is from Pullett v. Castellanos, Case No. 1:15-cv-00755-RRB (E.D. Cal. 2015):

20. Id. at 499-500; Nonnette v. Small, 316 F.3d 872, 875 (9th Cir. 2002) ("it has been clear for over thirty years that a state prisoner seeking injunctive relief against the denial or revocation of good-time credit must proceed in habeas corpus, and not under 1983.").
