Hook-handed Hamza is in solitary confinement at ADX Florence “supermax” prison in Colorado.
He was convicted of 11 charges of terrorism and kidnapping in 2015 and sentenced to life in jail.
The lag launched an appeal which judges will rule on later this year.
His lawyer said the cases would cost the US public at least £900,000.
