    John Edward ALLUMS, Plaintiff-Appellant v. Lance PHILLIPS; Corey Furr; Blake Lamb; Lee Martinez; Wade King; Johnny English; Gregory Oliver; Debbie Erwin; John Williams; Cheryl Lawson, Defendants-Appellees.
    No. 11-40222
    Summary Calendar.
    United States Court of Appeals, Fifth Circuit.
    Oct. 18, 2011.
    John Edward Allums, Lovelady, TX, pro se.
    Before JONES, Chief Judge and PRADO and ELROD, Circuit Judges.
   PER CURIAM:

John Edward Allums, Texas prisoner #578848, appeals the district court’s dismissal of his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 suit pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915A as frivolous and failure to state a claim. Allums argues that he was denied due process during his disciplinary proceeding and this denial implicated his Fourteenth Amendment rights when he was placed in administrative segregation as a result of the disciplinary infraction. The dismissal of Allums complaint is reviewed de novo. See Geiger v. Jowers, 404 F.3d 371, 373 (5th Cir.2005).

Placement in administrative segregation or a change in custodial classification as a result of a disciplinary infraction, without more, does not constitute a deprivation of a constitutionally cognizable liberty interest, and, therefore, there is no right to due process. Sandin v. Conner, 515 U.S. 472, 485-86, 115 S.Ct. 2293, 132 L.Ed.2d 418 (1995); Martin v. Scott, 156 F.3d 578, 580 (5th Cir.1998); Pichardo v. Kinker, 73 F.3d 612, 612 (5th Cir.1996); Luken v. Scott, 71 F.3d 192, 193 (5th Cir.1995); Meachum v. Fano, 427 U.S. 215, 225, 96 S.Ct. 2532, 49 L.Ed.2d 451 (1976). To demonstrate a liberty interest, such that due process rights are applicable, the prisoner, such as Allums, must show that the placement in administrative segregation or the change in custody status was imposed for disciplinary reasons and involves “atypical and significant hardship on the inmate in relation to the ordinary incidents of prison life.” Sandin, 515 U.S. at 485-86, 115 S.Ct. 2293. Allums has not made such a showing. See id.; Brinkmann v. Dallas County Deputy Sheriff Abner, 813 F.2d 744, 748 (5th Cir.1987). Additionally, any assertion that state prison rules and regulations were broken in connection with AL-lums’s placement in administrative segregation do not state a constitutional claim. See Jackson v. Cain, 864 F.2d 1235, 1252 (5th Cir.1989).

AFFIRMED. 
      
       Pursuant to 5th Cir. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5th Cir. R. 47.5.4.
