On May 3, 2010, a prisoner with mental illness incarcerated at a “supermax” facility in the Colorado State Penitentiary in Canon City filed this lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the District of Colorado. The plaintiff sued the Colorado Department of Corrections (CDOC), the warden of the Colorado State Penitentiary, and the Executive Director of the Colorado Department of Corrections. The plaintiff alleged violations of the Eighth and Fourteenth Amendments, the Americans with Disabilities Act, and the Rehabilitation Act. The plaintiff, represented by the Civil Rights Education and Enforcement Center and the University of Denver Civil Rights Clinic, alleged that by placing him in segregation for over a decade and not allowing him to experience daylight, fresh air, or outdoor exercise, the defendants had denied him numerous privileges afforded to other prisoners because of his mental illness. Further, the plaintiff alleged that the defendants denied him appropriate treatment for serious mental health issues. In the alternative, the plaintiff pleaded that the defendants punished him for his actual or perceived disability-related behavior without reasonable accommodations. He alleged that the prison made him ineligible for early release credits due to an arbitrary demerit system that punished his improperly treated mental illness without notice of what behaviors he was charged with and without sufficient procedures for review. The plaintiff sought declaratory and injunctive relief, compensatory damages under the Rehabilitation Act, and attorneys' fees and costs. This case was assigned to Judge R. Brooke Jackson and referred to Magistrate Judge Kathleen M. Tafoya.

On May 25, 2010, the defendants moved to dismiss the case and the district court denied the motion. On March 26, 2012, both the plaintiff and the defendants’ motions for summary judgment were denied on the merits. 848 F.Supp.2d 1291. The case proceeded to a bench trial which occurred between April 30 and May 8, 2012. On August 28, 2012, the court released a final order and judgment. 887 F. Supp. 2d 1133. The court stated: "denial of any opportunity to be outdoors and to engage in some form of outdoor exercise for a period of 12 years is a serious deprivation of a human need" and is "a paradigm of inhumane treatment." The court entered judgment in favor of the plaintiff since it found a violation of the Eighth Amendment’s ban on cruel and unusual punishment. The court ordered the CDOC to develop and present a plan that ensured the plaintiff had access to outdoor exercise for at least one hour three times a week. The court also ordered that the defendants assign a CDOC psychiatrist to evaluate the plaintiff's mental health treatment needs. The court noted that the formulary list of pre-approved medication could not be a bar to the plaintiff receiving whatever medication the psychiatrist deemed appropriate. Because the CDOC’s system for disciplinary proceedings had changed during the course of litigation, the court ruled in favor of the defendants to give their new policy a chance. However, the judge wrote in his opinion that if the new system proved to be "form over substance, [the plaintiff] knows where to find me." The court found that the plaintiff largely prevailed, and therefore awarded him costs and attorneys’ fees.

The plaintiff made subsequent motions: to alter or amend the judgment (September 21, 2012), for post-judgment discovery (November 16, 2012), and to enforce the settlement agreement regarding attorneys’ fees (July 15, 2013). The court granted the motion for discovery on January 2, 2013 and denied the other motions without prejudice on September 4, 2013. That same day, the court found that the exercise cells being used at CDOC’s Sterling facility did not amount to an acceptable permanent solution for providing an opportunity to exercise. It also found that there was uncertainty about how the mental health treatment issue was being resolved, as it was unclear whether there was inadequate treatment available or whether the plaintiff was refusing to accept available treatment.

Per the parties’ request, the court permitted them to engage in settlement discussions. The parties received several time extensions until the court made clear that it would not continue to grant extensions indefinitely.

On September 12, 2014, the plaintiff moved to enforce the August 28, 2012 judgment and further relief or, in the alternative, for a hearing on the order to show cause by the plaintiff. Although the plaintiff had been given a more substantial opportunity to exercise and access to mental health treatment, he was concerned that he would not be provided these services in the future.

On April 7, 2015, the court issued an order denying the plaintiff’s motion. 2015 WL 1593884. The court noted that the plaintiff had been permitted to exercise outside since July 2014 and had been placed on a treatment plan by a psychologist in the facility the month before. The court expressed its confidence in the CDOC’s leaders’ commitment to following through on the policy changes made in the prison.

There have been no further developments since the April 2015 order.

ORDER.Plaintiffs motion for partial summary judgment 47 is DENIED. Defendants motion for summary judgment 48 is GRANTED IN PART (as to denial of Strattera in 2004) AND DENIED IN PART (in all other respects). Plaintiffs motion to reopen discovery 65 is GRANTED IN PART (regarding a one-hour deposition of Dr. Tuakoi) AND DENIED IN PART (regarding the request to depose Dr. Lenocker). The Court does not address plaintiffs motion in limine concerning the admissibility of portions of depositions of defendants employees and experts 77 . However, the Court directs counsel to confer again, before the trial preparation conference, concerning these designations, bearing in mind (1) that the Court expects counsel reasonably to accommodate reasonable requests of opposing counsel, but (2) the Court generally prefers live testimony to deposition transcripts.
