How later courts describe this case
- subsequent prosecutions will only be barred when prison’s discipline was “grossly disproportionate” to its remedial interests
- "[T]he mere fact that a sanction imposed by prison officials has a punitive component does not mean that the sanction constitutes 'punish ment’ for double jeopardy purposes.”
