Case Summary

This case arose out of a federal prison's response to a pretrial inmate's request for Hepatitis C treatment. On October 17, 2019, the inmate filed suit in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Washington. The plaintiff brought a Bivens claim against multiple doctors and administrators for the Federal Detention Center in SeaTac, Washington (FDC SeaTac).

This case arose out of a federal prison's response to a pretrial inmate's request for Hepatitis C treatment. On October 17, 2019, the inmate filed suit in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Washington. The plaintiff brought a Bivens claim against multiple doctors and administrators for the Federal Detention Center in SeaTac, Washington (FDC SeaTac). The plaintiff alleged that the defendants (1) violated the Eighth Amendment by denying him medical treatment, and (2) violated the Fifth Amendment by discriminating against him because of his status as a pre-trial detainee. The plaintiff sought compensatory and punitive damages. The plaintiff appeared pro se in the trial court, and he was represented on appeal by the Northwestern Pritzker School of Law Bluhm Legal Clinic and Rights Behind Bars. The case was assigned to Magistrate Judge Michelle L. Peterson and Chief Judge Ricardo Martinez.

The plaintiff filed an amended complaint on February 17, 2020. In his amended complaint, the plaintiff alleged that he first sought treatment for his pre-existing Hepatitis C diagnosis at FDC SeaTac in early 2018. The plaintiff's request was purportedly denied because (1) he was a pre-trial detainee, and (2) the test used to assess liver fibrosis and cirrhosis was not within the range required for him to receive priority treatment. The plaintiff then pursued his requests through the Bureau of Prisons administrative remedy process. In response to an informal resolution form, the plaintiff was informed that he was "a treatment Priority Level 3 and a pre-trial inmate, [and] the Bureau of Prisons... is currently focusing on treating designated Priority 1 & 2 Level inmates."

In May 2018, the plaintiff filed a formal request for an administrative remedy. He was advised that the BOP was focusing on treating priority level one and two inmates, and they would continue to monitor the plaintiff's health. The plaintiff subsequently filed two additional appeals. While those appeals were pending, the plaintiff was transferred to a different facility, and he began to receive Hepatitis C treatment in late 2018. Ultimately, the BOP concluded that the plaintiff received adequate care despite the delay in treatment.

In his amended complaint, the plaintiff brought three claims. First, he alleged that the denial of Hepatitis C treatment based on his status as a pre-trial inmate violated his Fifth Amendment equal protection rights. Second, he alleged that the defendants' failure to address his medical needs as a pre-trial inmate violated the Fifth Amendment's Due Process Clause. Third, he alleged that the defendants were deliberately indifferent to his medical needs, in violation of the Eighth Amendment. The plaintiff sought $30 million in damages from five federal officials. 

On March 10, 2021, Judge Peterson recommended that the court grant the defendants' motion to dismiss the complaint. See 2021 WL 1341082. The report and recommendation noted that Ziglar v. Abbasi established a two-step inquiry for determining whether a Bivens claim can proceed. See 582 U.S. 120 (2017). First, a court must determine whether the claim arises in a "new Bivens context." If it does, then the court should not extend Bivens to the new context unless (1) the plaintiff does not have any other adequate alternative remedy, and (2) there are no "special factors" suggesting that Congress is better suited to authorize money damages.

Judge Peterson first acknowledged that the plaintiff had been convicted by the time the claims arose in this case. Thus, the Eighth Amendment was implicated, and the Fifth Amendment due process right was not. Second, the report determined that the Eighth Amendment claim and the Fifth Amendment equal protection claim arose in a "new Bivens context." Third, the court found that the plaintiff had alternate remedies available to him (i.e., BOP administrative remedies), thus precluding relief under Bivens. The court went on to note that even if relief were available under Bivens, the plaintiff failed to allege facts demonstrating that the defendants were "deliberately indifferent" to his medical needs.

On July 1, 2021, Chief Judge Martinez adopted Judge Peterson's recommendation and dismissed the case with prejudice. See 2021 WL 2709236. The plaintiff filed an appeal to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. The appeal was heard by Circuit Judge Jacqueline Nguyen, Circuit Judge Andrew Hurwitz, and District Judge Dean Pregerson.

The Ninth Circuit reversed the District Court's order dismissing the case on December 11, 2023. See 88 F.4th 811. As to the plaintiff's Eighth Amendment claim, the court found that the claim did not arise in a "new Bivens context." Specifically, the plaintiff's claims were sufficiently comparable to the Eighth Amendment claims that the U.S. Supreme Court recognized in Carlson v. Green, 446 U.S. 14 (1980). As to the plaintiff's Fifth Amendment equal protection claim, the court affirmed the District Court's dismissal. That claim arose in a new context, and the existence of alternative remedial structures precluded relief under Bivens. The case was remanded to the District Court for further proceedings.

On May 10, 2024, defendants filed a renewed motion to dismiss, again asserting that the plaintiff failed to state a claim for relief under the Eighth Amendment. The plaintiff then filed a motion for summary judgment on May 21, 2024, after which the court ordered that the plaintiff respond to the motion to dismiss. On June 10, 2024, the plaintiff filed an application for court-appointed counsel.  

As of June 24, 2024, the case is ongoing.
