LAS VEGAS (AP) " The man convicted with O.J. Simpson in an armed hotel room heist has been moved from a large southern Nevada prison to a correctional center in Carson City.

Nevada prison spokeswoman Suzanne Pardee said Friday she couldn't disclose a reason for Clarence "C.J." Stewart's move from the 3,000-bed High Desert State Prison in Indian Springs to the 1,619-inmate Northern Nevada Correctional Center.

The 55-year-old Stewart is serving 7 1/2 to 27 years and Simpson is serving nine to 33 years for kidnapping and assault with a deadly weapon in the gunpoint robbery of two sports memorabilia dealers in September 2007.

Simpson is housed at Lovelock Correction Center, 90 miles northeast of Reno.
