Hailer v. Allegheny County, No. 1469 C.D. 2021 (Pa. Commw. Ct.) (en banc)
All Rise Trial & Appellate filed an amicus brief on behalf of the Abolitionist Law Center and the Pennsylvania Institutional Law Project in support of a reporter seeking records about deaths in custody at the Allegheny County Jail. The brief explains the stakes of the case, including the particular need for transparency at the Jail in light of years of mismanagement and nearly twenty deaths in custody in just two years.
Update: the en banc Commonwealth court has held that the records must be released.
