Oberist Lee Saunders v. Wayne Ivey, Sheriff, Brevard County, Florida, et al.
(1) Whether, consistent with Kingsley v. Hendrickson, 135 S. Ct. 2466 (2015), a Fourteenth Amendment conditions-of-confinement claim brought by a pretrial detainee should be evaluated under an objective or subjective standard, a question on which the federal courts of appeals have split.
(2) Whether, at the time of Petitioner's confinement, the right of a detainee not to be confined in conditions lacking basic sanitation was clearly established under Hutto v. Finney, 437 U.S. 678 (1978), Rhodes v. Chapman, 452 U.S. 337 (1981), and myriad court of appeal decisions, or, alternatively, whether Petitioner's conditions of confinement were so obviously unconstitutional that any reasonable officer would have recognized them as such.
