An Inclusive Litany
3/27/00
In the wake of the Supreme Court's Yeskey decision, which
extended disabled-rights law to prison inmates, an inmate sued when
guards "reduced his daily allotment of undergarments from five to
one." Another inmate challenged the denial of conjugal visits from his
HIV-positive partner. Another lodged an ADA complaint against his
rejection for a physically strenuous boot camp program, despite the
fact that he has no hands.
