Case Summary

On September 6, 2019, the plaintiff, an individual incarcerated at the Leavenworth prison facility, filed a complaint and an emergency motion for a temporary restraining order in the District Court for the District of Kansas against the Federal Bureau of Prisons (BOP) seeking emergency, temporary, and permanent injunctive relief from a prison policy that forbade prescription of anti-opioid medical treatment to inmates. The plaintiff was represented by attorneys from the American Civil Liberties…

Specifically, the plaintiff alleged that the prison's policy of withholding medical addiction treatment (MAT) violated the Eighth Amendment's cruel and unusual punishment clause. The plaintiff described that he had not been using opioids for 15 months since his initial prescription of MAT, but if treatment was discontinued, he would experience an increased likelihood of relapse, painful withdrawals, and possible death. He also alleged that drug addiction was a disability requiring treatment under the Rehabilitation Act 27 U.S.C. 794(a). Finally, he also alleged that, as a federal facility, any of the prison's final decisions were subject to review under the Administrative Procedure Act and claimed that withholding treatment in this manner is arbitrary and capricious or not in accordance with law (5 U.S.C. 706(2)(a)). The plaintiff sought relief under the Declaratory Judgment Act, 28 U.S.C. 2201.

The plaintiff withdrew his motion for a temporary restraining order on September 11, 2019, saying that the "parties had reached a resolution in the matter." Further discovery and motions showed that the Bureau of Prisons issued interim guidance to prescribe MAT when medically appropriate, and conducted telemedicine conferences to get the plaintiff a prescription for MAT for as long as is medically necessary during his stay in Leavenworth.

Once this administrative change was made, the BOP filed a motion to dismiss on January 17, 2020, saying that the allegations in the complaint were now moot with the new policy in place. The plaintiff contested this claim, writing in a motion that the injury remains because interim guidance is no guarantee that he would get MAT through his stay and alleging that BOP staff had threatened that his medication would be taken away.

In a ruling dated March 31, 2020 (2020 WL 1528502), Judge John W. Broomes approved the defendant's motion to dismiss, and dismissed the case without prejudice, saying that the claims in the complaint were rendered moot by the BOP interim guidance. He wrote that the interim guidance was appropriate, and that the plaintiff only asked for injunctive relief, which is no longer necessary with the guidance in place.

The case was closed and no appeal has yet been filed.
