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 combination of pre trial release restrictions, including restriction on interstate travel, amount to a seizure
• noting that it would be \odd\ to find a violation of the Self-Incrimination Clause if a confession was not obtained and then used in a criminal case
• concluding that no Fourth Amendment right applied at the moment the plaintiff alleged excessive force in a pretrial prison setting because the plaintiff had been “seized” for purposes of the Fourth Amendment when he was arrested previously, and not when the excessive force incident occurred
• noting that both prisoners and those arrested, but not yet charged are entitled to Eighth Amendment protection
• applying Bivens v. Six Unknown Fed. Narcotics Agents, 403 U. S. 388 (1971), to hold that a suspect may bring a federal cause of action under the Due Process Clause for police misconduct during custodial interrogation
• relying on Edwards v. Giles without a discussion of the circumstances of the individual case
