AFFIRMED
Alan Burns, of North Charleston, pro se.
Christopher D. Florian, of Columbia, for Respondent.
PER CURIAM:� Alan Burns appeals the Administrative Law Court's (ALC) order dismissing the Department of Corrections's inmate disciplinary action.� Burns argues the ALC's action deprived him of his due process rights and contravened its own scheduling order in dismissing his appeal before he could file a reply brief.[1]� We affirm[2] pursuant to rule 220(b)(1), SCACR, and the following authorities:
1. As to whether the dismissal violated Burns's due process rights: Olsen v. S.C. Dep't of Health & Envtl. Control, 379 S.C. 57, 69, 663 S.E.2d 497, 503-04 (Ct. App. 2008) ("Procedural due process requirements are not technical, and no particular form of procedure is necessary.� Rather, due process is flexible and calls for such procedural protections as the particular situation demands. . . .� The fundamental requirement of due process is the opportunity to be heard at a meaningful time and in a meaningful manner." (citations and internal quotation marks omitted)).
2. As to whether the dismissal violated the ALC's order: S.C. Code Ann. � 1-23-610(B) (Supp. 2010) (permitting this court to reverse the ALC's decision only "if the substantive rights of the petitioner have been prejudiced" (emphasis added)).
AFFIRMED.
FEW, C.J., and THOMAS and KONDUROS, JJ., concur.
[1] Burns raises five issues on appeal, all of which relate to the above contention.� Therefore, we address the five issues as one.
[2] We decide this case without oral argument pursuant to Rule 215, SCACR.
