    Andre FAIN, Appellant v. Evelyn MORGAN; Judy M. Gagliano; Ruby Washington; Mr. Colazzo; Thomas Renahan.
    No. 07-1508.
    United States Court of Appeals, Third Circuit.
    Submitted Pursuant to Third Circuit LAR 34.1(a) Nov. 15, 2007.
    Filed: Nov. 28, 2007.
    Andre Fain, Bridgeton, NJ, pro se.
    Before: SLOVITER, BARRY and WEIS, Circuit Judges.
   OPINION

PER CURIAM.

Appellant, Andre Fain, proceeding pro se, appeals from the District Court’s orders dismissing his complaint pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §§ 1915(e)(2) & 1915A and denying his motion for reconsideration pursuant to Fed.R.Civ.P. 59(e). For the reasons that follow, we will vacate the District Court’s orders and remand for further proceedings.

Fain filed a civil rights complaint pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983, alleging that Appellees violated his due process rights by fabricating evidence and falsifying documents for use at his parole eligibility hearings, by relying on the fabricated evidence in denying his parole, and by intentionally concealing the fact that such evidence was used at his eligibility hearings. The District Court sua sponte dismissed Fain’s complaint pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §§ 1915(e)(2) & 1915A for failure to state a claim upon which relief can be granted. Fain filed a motion for reconsideration, which the District Court also denied. Fain appeals.

We have jurisdiction over this appeal pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291. Our review of a district court’s sua sponte dismissal of a complaint pursuant to § 1915(e)(2) is plenary. Allah v. Seiverling, 229 F.3d 220, 223 (3d Cir.2000).

The District Court construed Fain’s complaint as asserting that his due process rights were violated at his parole revocation hearing and concluded that Fain must raise his claims in a habeas petition because any challenge to the revocation of his parole would necessarily imply the invalidity of his confinement. See Heck v. Humphrey, 512 U.S. 477, 114 S.Ct. 2364, 129 L.Ed.2d 383 (1994). Fain asserts, however, because his complaint is challenging the constitutionality of his parole review hearings, not the validity of his parole revocation hearing, his claims do not necessarily imply the invalidity of his confinement. We agree.

An inmate may file a § 1983 action for procedural challenges if the action would not necessarily spell immediate or speedier release for the prisoner. Wilkinson v. Dotson, 544 U.S. 74, 81, 125 S.Ct. 1242, 161 L.Ed.2d 253 (2005). Fain’s complaint is challenging the validity of his parole review hearings, not his parole revocation hearing. In his motion for reconsideration, Fain reiterates that, contrary to the District Court’s interpretation, his complaint does not challenge the validity of his parole revocation hearing, which he concedes was proper. Additionally, in his motion for reconsideration, Fain concedes that, even without the allegedly fabricated evidence, the Parole Review Board still could have denied him parole at his review hearing. We agree. The Parole Review Board bases its decision to grant or deny parole on numerous factors. See N.J. A.D.C. 10A:71-3.11. Accordingly, Fain’s complaint does not necessarily imply the invalidity of his confinement and may be filed pursuant to § 1983. See Wilkinson, 544 U.S. at 81, 125 S.Ct. 1242.

For the foregoing reason, we will vacate the District Court’s orders and remand for further proceedings. Fain’s motion for sanctions is denied. See Martin v. Brown, 63 F.3d 1252, 1265 (3d Cir.1995). 
      
      . Even if the claims in Fain's complaint were unclear, the District Court should have informed Fain that he had leave to amend his complaint, especially in light of Fain’s motion for reconsideration. See Grayson v. Mayview State Hosp., 293 F.3d 103, 108 (3d Cir.2002).
