Opinion
These appeals arise from a judgment in a mandamus action filed by appellant, an inmate at the Georgia State Prison in Reidsville, Georgia, against prison officials. Appellant alleged errors in various disciplinary proceedings which resulted in a loss of earned-time credits on his sentences and sought reinstatement of that earned-time.
After completing an evidentiary hearing the trial court found the department had failed to give appellant 120 days jail credit for time spent in a county facility and ordered that credit be given. The trial [20]*20court then reviewed the disciplinary actions and concluded that appellant was not entitled to additional earned-time.
After reviewing the record, the judgment of the court, and the contentions of the appellant, we hold that the judgment should be affirmed.
Judgment affirmed.
