A member is asking if anyone has had a prison case related to Covid and conditions of confinement with a court-appointed monitor.  They are looking to recommend one in their case and need suggestions.  If you have suggestions for a court appointed monitor, please send them to me at akarras@imla.orgmailto:akarras@imla.org and I will pass them along.

Thanks,
Amanda

Ms. Karras,

I apologize for the delay in responding.  In the County's COVID-19 case we did not have a court monitor but there were inspections by Dr. Franco Parades.  He did not really inspect but focused on interviewing inmates and noting their grievances.
