MERRITT, Chief Judge. Plaintiff Paul Gibbs, a pro se Michigan prisoner, appeals the judgment of the District Court dismissing his civil rights action for damages filed under 42 U.S.C. § 1983. Gibbs alleges retaliation by defendant prison officials Robert J. Hopkins and Pat Leavenworth for his successful assistance of other prisoners in bringing their own civil rights suits against prison officials. For the following reasons, we affirm in part and reverse in part the summary judgment of the District Court.
