Lawrence Hurley covers the Supreme Court for NBC News.
WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court on Monday refused to weigh under what circumstances prisoners in solitary confinement have a constitutional right to exercise, turning away an Illinois inmate's claim that he was denied the opportunity for three years. The court's three liberal justices disagreed with the decision not to take up the case, with Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson writing a lengthy dissenting opinion in which she called the inmate's treatment 'unusually severe.
Jackson in an opinion joined by Justices Sonia Sotomayor and Elena Kagan, said Johnson should have been allowed to pursue his claim that officials were deliberately indifferent to his health needs. 'The consequences of such a prolonged period of exercise deprivation were predictable severe. Most notably, Johnson's mental state deteriorated rapidly,' Jackson wrote.
