Case Summary

On November 13, 1995, the United States Department of Justice filed a lawsuit against the commonwealth of Kentucky in the United States District Court for the Western District of Kentucky pursuant in the Civil Rights of Institutionalized Persons Act (CRIPA), 42 U.S.C. § 1997 et seq., and the provisions of the Crime Bill, 42 U.S.C. 14141, concerning the administration of juvenile justice.

On November 13, 1995, the United States Department of Justice filed a lawsuit against the commonwealth of Kentucky in the United States District Court for the Western District of Kentucky pursuant in the Civil Rights of Institutionalized Persons Act (CRIPA), 42 U.S.C. § 1997 et seq., and the provisions of the Crime Bill, 42 U.S.C. 14141, concerning the administration of juvenile justice. The DOJ alleged that the conditions at juvenile institutions in Kentucky did not meet constitutional standards. Specifically, they alleged that defendants failed to provide adequate medical care, mental health care, rehabilitation and aftercare, education and special education, and access to exercise to juveniles confined in Kentucky juvenile treatment facilities. The DOJ also alleged that conditions and inadequate supervision at these facilities created serious health and safety risks, and that defendants had failed to adequately classify juveniles. Finally, they alleged that defendants failed to protect juveniles from staff abuse, failed to provide institutional safeguards for the use of isolation, and failed to adequately protect juveniles from undue risk of harm from fire. The DOJ sought a permanent injunction.

On December 4, 1995, the district court (Judge Charles R. Simpson III) granted the parties' motion to enter their consent decree as an order of the court. The parties agreed that defendants would remedy each of the above violations within 180 days. The court retained jurisdiction until compliance with the consent decree was completed. In addition, defendants agreed that if they decided to construct new treatment facilities or renovate existing ones, they would comply with the standards of the American Correctional Association (ACA), the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA), and all Kentucky fire codes and regulations.

On April 29, 1996 the district court (Judge Simpson) granted the DOJ's motion for an order appointing a monitor to oversee the implementation of the consent decree. The docket ends on January 17, 2001 with the court (Judge Simpson) granting the parties' joint motion to dismiss or terminate the consent decree.
