Today the Stanford Law School Supreme Court Litigation Clinic, along with Akin Gump and Howe & Russell, filed this cert. petition in Burkey v. Marberry. At issue in the case is whether a prisoner’s challenge to his continued detention is mooted by his release when a judgment in his favor would establish that he was incarcerated beyond the proper expiration of his prison term, thereby supporting a claim for reduction in his term of supervised release. I am counsel of record and clinic students Martine Cicconi, Jake Heller, and Rakesh Kilaru ably assisted in the preparation of the petition.
