Leonard Harris v. Nakita Ross, et al.
AdministrativeLaw SocialSecurity DueProcess FirstAmendment FourthAmendment CriminalProcedure Punishment Privacy
Due Process Violations from the Use of Expunged Records: This case raises fundamental questions about whether the use of expunged records in judicial proceedings violates constitutional protections and federal law, including the Privacy Act.
Procedural Defects in Warrants: Petitioner's case highlights systemic flaws in warrant issuance, including missing report numbers, duplicate identifiers, and invalid attestations under oath, all of which implicate the Fourth Amendment and due process.
Jurisdictional Overreach Post-Parole Expiration: Enforcement of supervision conditions beyond the expiration of Petitioner's MSR raises federalism and due process concerns.
Reconstruction of Lost Records Without Notice: The use of expunged documents to reconstruct lost files without Petitioner's knowledge violates procedural safeguards under the Fourteenth Amendment.
Suppression of Exculpatory Evidence: The suppression of records demonstrating the invalidity of the warrant and expiration of supervision status constitutes a Brady violation.
Inhumane Detention Conditions: Following my arrest under the defective warrant, I was detained under inhumane conditions that violated my Eighth and Fourteenth Amendment rights.
