Mullican|Hart Prevails in Civil Rights Defense Case For Private Prison Client

Rob Hart and team recently won a Motion to Dismiss on behalf of a private prison client in a case where the plaintiffs alleged violations of their civil rights. Among the allegations was a claim that the staff utilized “orchestrated fights” for discipline, the distribution of drugs by staff, and the manipulation of urinalysis testing. Rob successfully argued that the Court lacked subject matter jurisdiction which was an issue of first impression in Oklahoma.
