How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

  • holding that a 16 male parole officer’s unobscured and close observation of a female parolee’s use of the toilet 17 violates the parolee’s “clearly established” right to bodily privacy
  • holding that a parole officer was not entitled to qualified immunity for depriving a woman of her clearly established due process right to bodily privacy by entering a bathroom stall and watching her urinate
  • explaining that “[t]he right to bodily privacy is fundamental” and that “common sense, decency, and [state] regulations” require recognizing it in a parolee’s right not to be observed by an officer of the opposite sex while producing a urine sample
  • stating that the \right to bodily privacy was established\ in York
  • involving a male parole officer forcibly entering a bathroom stall with a female parolee to supervise the provision of a urine sample
  • emphasizing the up-close, unobscured privacy intrusion rather than the fact that the parole officer and parolee were of opposite genders
