Chapman''''', 452 U.S. 337, 349 (1981), the [[U.S. Supreme Court]] held that the [[U.S. Constitution]] "does not mandate comfortable prisons" and that deference to the legislature was appropriate in the absence of infliction of needless pain or other [[Eighth Amendment]] violations. + − Generally prison officials may not use excessive physical force against prisoners.

Palmer'', 468 U.S. 517, 526-527 (1984). + − [[category:United States Supreme Court Cases]] − [[category:Eighth Amendment]]
