Shropshire v. Carter et al (INMATE 3) is a pro se prisoner civil rights action filed in the United States District Court on April 11, 2023. Plaintiff Shropshire, an inmate in the Alabama correctional system, brought suit against multiple defendants including defendant Carter and other correctional officials. The complaint, filed under 42 U.S.C. § 1983, alleges constitutional violations related to the conditions of plaintiff's confinement. The case was assigned an "INMATE 3" designation, indicating it falls under the court's administrative procedures for managing prisoner litigation. Shropshire sought relief for alleged violations of rights secured by the United States Constitution during incarceration. The case proceeded through initial screening pursuant to the Prison Litigation Reform Act.

Whether the defendants, acting under color of state law, violated the plaintiff's constitutional rights during incarceration, and whether the alleged conditions of confinement rose to the level of a constitutional violation actionable under 42 U.S.C. § 1983.
