Curing The Ake Of An Incompetent Expert: A Separate Reviewable Issue, Kenneth S. Roberts Nov 1992

Curing The Ake Of An Incompetent Expert: A Separate Reviewable Issue, Kenneth S. Roberts

San Diego Law Review

However, whether this due process right to expert assistance was satisfied by the mere appointment of a psychiatrist or whether it included the requirement that the expert perform competently had remained unanswered as of 1992. This Comment attempts to address this issue in the affirmative and additionally develops …

The Duty To Serve And Protect: 42 U.S.C. § 1983 And Police Officers' Liability Following Roadside Abandonment, Michael R. Gotham Jul 1992

The Duty To Serve And Protect: 42 U.S.C. § 1983 And Police Officers' Liability Following Roadside Abandonment, Michael R. Gotham

Washington Law Review

Courts disagree about whether an individual has a cause of action against a police officer under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 when that officer abandoned the individual in a dangerous environment following a traffic stop.

Also, courts have required plaintiffs in these cases to show that an asserted right was clearly established at the time the officer acted in order to overcome the officer's qualified immunity defense. This requirement often bars plaintiffs from recovering under section 1983. This …
