Case Summary

COVID-19 Summary: This is a class action brought by individuals incarcerated in the Philadelphia Department of Prisons (Philadelphia's jail system), alleging that the conditions within the facility were unconstitutional due to the plaintiffs' heightened risk of serious illness or death from COVID-19. The parties entered into a partial settlement agreement as to protective equipment, disinfectant, and monitoring, which was approved by the court on June 3, 2020. The plaintiffs twice moved for contempt and sanctions against the City for failure to comply with the terms of the partial settlement agreement, resulting in two additional partial settlements. A final settlement was approved on July 12, 2022, and the court appointed a monitor. The court found the defendants in contempt of this settlement agreement on July 12, 2024 and issued a new injunction to address the issues. As of September 2024, monitoring is ongoing.

On April 20, 2020, ten individuals held at the Philadelphia Department of Prisons brought this action in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania. Represented by the Pennsylvania Institutional Law Project, the ACLU of Pennsylvania, and private counsel, the plaintiffs sued the City of Philadelphia and the Philadelphia Department of Prisons ("PDP") under 22 U.S.C. § 2241, 42 U.S.C. § 1983, and 28 U.S.C. §§ 2201-2202, seeking relief based on deprivations of their Fourteenth and Eighth Amendment rights. Specifically, they alleged that because the plaintiffs were at higher risk for serious illness or death from COVID-19 due to their medical conditions or ages, the conditions of the facilities and their continued detention was unconstitutional. The case was assigned to Judge Berle M. Schiller.

Simultaneous with their complaint, the plaintiffs filed a motion for class certification, seeking to certify a class of "all people held in custody within PDP," which included 2 subclasses: (1) Medically Vulnerable Subclass, and (2) Disability Subclass.

On April 23, 2020, the plaintiffs filed a motion for preliminary injunction and temporary restraining order, seeking to obtain conditions that complied with the health and safety standards necessary to protect them. In the alternative, if such conditions were not possible, they requested the court issue writs of habeas corpus to release a sufficient number of inmates so that the facilities could adhere appropriately to the health and safety standards suggested. The defendants opposed both the motion and class certification.

After various telephone conferences held throughout the month of May, Judge Schiller entered a consent order of partial settlement on June 3, 2020. The settlement agreement included terms regarding protective equipment, disinfectant, monitoring, and reporting. The agreement also stated that the parties would continue to discuss and work toward a separate settlement agreement regarding issues of social distancing and cohorting upon the completion of COVID-19 testing. 2020 WL 7549880.

The parties continued to have telephone conferences with the court and submit joint status reports. On December 18, 2020, the court ordered that the June 3 partial settlement remain in full effect, adding requirements for one-time testing of all staff by January 15, 2021 and testing of all detained individuals with a goal of finishing testing by the same date. 2020 WL 7549941. Judge Schiller also ordered the defendants to provide weekly certifications regarding compliance with the June 3 order. On December 28, 2020, the defendants moved for reconsideration of the December 18 order.

On December 30, 2020, the court ordered that the defendants prepare and submit to the court and plaintiffs an operations and management plan to improve out-of-cell time and also ordered testing of incarcerated people to be completed by January 13, 2021.

On January 12, 2021, the parties attended a hearing before Judge Schiller, and the following day, the court ordered that the cohort size for out-of-cell time could be increased to allow for more out-of-cell time for incarcerated individuals. On January 28, the court issued another order, stating that the prison must steadily increase its cohort sizes to provide additional out-of-cell time, increasing to 3 hours per day by February 24. The court also dismissed the defendants' motion for reconsideration as moot.

The plaintiffs filed a motion for contempt and sanctions against the defendants in May 2021, reporting that the defendants had repeatedly refused to comply with terms of the consent order by failing to give incarcerated people in defendants’ facilities their court-mandated daily out-of-cell time. After the court found grounds to hold the City in contempt, Judge Schiller ordered that the defendants provide the plaintiffs with regular formal reports of compliance with the court order, and postponed deciding on whether to hold the defendants in contempt or to order sanctions.

The parties reached a settlement agreement to resolve these contempt issues in late June 2021. This settlement agreement required the City to make a one-time payment of $125,000 to split between two local bail funds: the Philadelphia Bail Fund and the Philadelphia Community Bail Fund. Judge Schiller approved the settlement on June 23, 2021.

In September 2021, Judge Schiller issued an order declaring what ongoing prison conditions should look like, and that facilities should return to their pre-COVID operations by early 2022, including eight hours of out-of-cell time, absent extenuating circumstances. 2021 WL 4269171.

The plaintiffs filed an amended complaint in mid-October 2021. This new complaint included requests for injunctive relief in light of the plaintiffs’ concerns about out-of-cell time. On December 9, 2021, Judge Schiller denied the plaintiffs’ initial request for class certification as moot in light of the plaintiffs’ amended complaint, and they filed a new request for class certification on December 21, 2021.

The plaintiffs filed another motion for contempt and sanctions in December 2021. Judge Schiller approved another settlement agreement between the parties on January 31, 2022, and the plaintiffs withdrew their motion for contempt. Under the settlement agreement, the City agreed to make an additional $125,000 payment to the Philadelphia Bail Fund.

On January 28, 2022, the plaintiffs asked the court for leave to file a third amended complaint and filed an amended motion to certify the class. The court granted the motion for leave and the plaintiffs filed a third amended class action complaint on February 22, 2022. The amended complaint added six additional plaintiffs incarcerated in PDP and asserted four claims for relief, three pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983 and one pursuant to the ADA. Count I alleged that the defendants violated the Eighth and Fourteenth Amendments by failing to provide “for the[ir] reasonable health and safety” and “humane conditions of confinement.” Count II alleged unconstitutional lack of access to courts and counsel arising under the First, Sixth, and Fourteenth Amendments. Count III asserted that the defendants' use of punitive or administrative segregation and imposition of financial assessments violated the Fourteenth Amendment. Count IV alleged that the "Disability Subclass" was denied reasonable accommodations, adequate out-of-cell time, and adequate medical and mental health treatment in violation of the ADA.

Later that year, on March 11, the court certified a class of "All persons who are currently or will be in the future confined in the Philadelphia Department of Prisons, and are or will be subjected to illegal or unconstitutional conditions of confinement as a result of policies and restrictions implemented in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, and the PDP’s staffing shortage." The court further defined a subclass of those with "physical and/or psychiatric impairments that substantially limit one or more of their major life activities." 2022 WL 742707.

On April 12, 2022, the parties filed, and the court approved, a preliminary class action settlement. Under the terms of the preliminary agreement, the City of Philadelphia would: address hiring and retention practices; provide minimum out-of-cell time; increase capacity for in-person visits; ensure adequate medical and mental health treatment; ensure compliance with due process rights during disciplinary hearings; expand access to phones and tablets; continue implementation of a lock replacement program; continue to follow COVID-19 protocols; and continue use-of-force refresher training. The preliminary agreement left open the discussion on payments for plaintiffs’ attorneys’ fees, and proposed that the court retain jurisdiction over the agreement for two years. The parties also stipulated that the settlement was not an admission of defendants’ wrongdoing.

The court granted the motion on May 25, 2022, and, at the parties’ recommendation, appointed a monitor to oversee implementation of the terms of the agreement. Fifty-six class members filed objections to the preliminary settlement agreement, which were reviewed by the parties but ultimately did not warrant disruption of the final settlement terms. Objections primarily referenced dissatisfaction with prison conditions that the settlement was designed to address and disappointment with the lack of monetary damages.

The parties filed a joint motion for approval of the class action settlement on June 22, 2022. The court approved the agreement the following month, on July 12. The agreement did not significantly deviate from the terms of the preliminary agreement, and the parties settled the claim for attorneys’ fees and costs for $340,000. As part of the agreement, the monitor would continue to observe PDP facilities for two years unless the oversight period was shortened or extended. The court also dismissed the plaintiffs’ motion for preliminary injunction as moot following approval of the settlement.

The monitor submitted the first report on November 4, 2022 and the second report on March 3, 2023.

The third report was submitted seven months later, on October 12. It noted that the defendants had not yet resumed normal operations regarding programming, visits, and other services, as required by the terms of the settlement agreement. The monitor found that defendants had only achieved partial compliance with conditions of the agreement requiring sufficient staffing of correctional officers, out-of-cell time for incarcerated individuals, adequate healthcare, and a method of addressing the backlog of individuals seeking healthcare. The monitor observed improvements in the prisons’ visiting and discipline procedures, and found substantial compliance with COVID-testing and quarantine requirements.

The case was reassigned from Judge Schiller to Judge Gerald A. McHugh on December 20, 2023. On December 22, after reviewing the settlement agreement and the monitor’s reports, Judge McHugh ordered that the conditions of the agreement be extended to April 30, 2025. The court highlighted the monitor’s findings that defendants were not yet in substantial compliance with the settlement terms, except with regard to provisions governing COVID-19 testing and quarantine protocols.

On January 4, 2024, the parties stipulated to extending the terms and conditions of the settlement agreement another year, until April 30, 2026.

The fourth monitor's report was filed on March 29, 2024. In it, the monitor indicated that the defendants were not compliant with many of the consent decree's provisions, in part due to staffing shortages. The monitor determined that the defendants "ha[d] pursued a course of half measures steeped in bureaucratic and political rigidity with devastating consequences for Class Members and [prison] staff."

The following month, on April 8, the plaintiffs moved to hold the defendants in contempt based on alleged noncompliance with the consent decree. The plaintiffs pointed to various issues that had occurred throughout the years as well as several findings from the most recent monitor's report, including an increase in deaths of class members, staffing shortages, a lack of out-of-cell time, a medical appointment backlog, a lack of law library access, and sanitation problems.

The court granted the motion for contempt later that year, on July 12, after several hearings. The court held that the defendants were noncompliant at least as to staffing levels and out-of-cell time. A month later, on August 16, the court entered an injunction based on the contempt finding. The injunction required the defendants to take various measures related to 1) hiring new staff, 2) medical care funding and access, 3) law library access and programming opportunities, 4) facility maintenance and security, 5) relocating incarcerated people to address population issues, and 6) hiring an internal compliance monitor. The court also ordered Philadelphia to pay $25 million, which would be used for the city to meet the order's requirements.
