Docket No. Op. Below Argument Opinion Vote Author Term
14-1020 9th Cir. N/A N/A N/A N/A OT 2014

Issue: Whether there is a Fourteenth Amendment substantive due process right to avoid a prolonged pretrial detention caused by a police officer's failure to disclose evidence that is "strongly indicative of innocence"; or, where there has been no trial and conviction, and thus no violation under Brady v. Maryland, whether pretrial deprivations of liberty are governed by the Fourth Amendment.
