What Are the Common Legal Issues That Arise in Prison?
With our years of experience in this practice, we’ve dealt with diverse cases for numerous incarcerated individuals.
The common legal issues that happen in prison-related cases are the following:
- Assault
- Civil Rights Violations
- Drug Crimes
- Gang-Related Violence
- Rape
- Riots
With inmates not having the full constitutional rights to protect them, they are challenged by the Prison Litigation Reform Act (PLRA), which was enacted in 1996, that requires them to exhaust administrative remedies, among others, before taking a stand on the condition of their confinement in court.
How Can You Defend Yourself Against the Complexities of the Prison Litigation Reform Act?
According to the Prison Litigation Reform Act (PLRA), no action shall be brought with respect to prison conditions under section 1983 of this title or any other Federal law, by an incarcerated individual in any jail, prison, or correctional facility unless such administrative remedies as are available are exhausted. This means you are limited of your right to sue for anyone for issues that may arise during your incarceration.
However, with the help of a seasoned litigation attorney with extensive experience in pursuing prison-related cases, you may get the vindication you want to achieve and the restitution from the opposing party.
