| مستخلص: |
The article discusses two separate legal cases. In the first case, the court ruled that an inmate's waiver of counsel was intelligent, knowing, and voluntary, affirming the district court's ruling. This case highlights the tension between the right to counsel and the right to self-representation. In the second case, the court determined that prison officials were protected by qualified immunity in a deliberate indifference claim regarding inmate safety and medical needs. The court ruled that there was no constitutional right for security checks or the delivery of medical services in an emergency. The article provides a dissenting opinion and discusses the standard for deliberate indifference in correctional settings. [Extracted from the article] |
