In a hand-written lawsuit, Richards said denying his request for erotic material subjects him to a "poor standard of living" and "sexual and sensory deprivation".
The Detroit News was told by the Michigan Department of Corrections that prisons allow some pornographic material, though it is banned at the jail.
The American Civil Liberties Union said prisons have a lot of leeway.
Richards was charged with bank robbery after police followed a trail of snowy footprints and dropped money to his apartment from a bank robbery scene in January in Fraser, north of Detroit.
