SCOTUS Allows Prisoner's Suit

(h/t to Colorado Confidential and Andrew Oh-Willeke)

William Erickson had nothing to lose when Limon, Colorado prison officials denied him any treatment for a life threatening disease that they were aware that he was suffering from, so he took his case all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court. He got very lucky. The high court took his case and held in an expedited summary ruling that he had the right to have a trial judge hear his request to have medical treatment restored on the merits.
