“The Prison Litigation Reform Act does provide procedures prior to the withdrawal of funds from a prisoner’s account. To determine whether this process is all that is constitutionally due before a prisoner can be deprived of this protected interest, we must consider three factors: (1) the private interest that will be affected by the official action; (2) the risk of an erroneous deprivation of such interest through the procedures used, and the probable value, if any, of additional or substitute procedural safeguards; and (3) the government’s interest.”
