                            ORDER AND JUDGMENT *


      *
       This order and judgment is not binding precedent, except under the
doctrines of law of the case, res judicata, and collateral estoppel. The court
                                                                       (continued...)
Before TACHA, Chief Judge, HENRY, and HARTZ, Circuit Judges.


      As the parties agree, the threshold issue before us is whether the   Heck

doctrine, see Heck v. Humphrey , 
512 U.S. 477
(1994), bars jurisdiction in this

case. Whether Heck applies depends on whether deprivation of good-time or

earned-time credits necessarily affects the duration of a Colorado prisoner’s

confinement. The record is inadequate to resolve this matter, and both counsel at

oral argument sought remand to the district court for development of the record.

Accordingly, we REMAND to the district court for further proceedings

concerning whether, under the    Heck doctrine, the district court has jurisdiction to

hear Mr. Baldauf’s claims. If the court determines that it has jurisdiction, it

should decide the merits, conducting any further proceedings that it deems

necessary.

                                         ENTERED FOR THE COURT


                                         Harris L Hartz
                                         Circuit Judge




      *
       (...continued)
generally disfavors the citation of orders and judgments; nevertheless, an order
and judgment may be cited under the terms and conditions of 10th Cir. R. 36.3.
