The Court ruled that Federal courts may only grant a writ of habeas corpus if a violation of federal law is found. Federal courts may not grant habeas relief if, instead, the only issue raised is a potential violation of state law.
In an 8-0 decision, the Court ruled that 18 U.S.C. § 924(c), which required a minimum five-year prison sentence, was to be imposed in addition to any other mandatory sentence given for another crime, including the underlying drug-related or violent offense.
Los Angeles Cnty. v. Humphries
562 U.S. 29
November 30, 2010
Where a city is being sued under Section 1983 of the Civil Rights Act of 1871, if it violates someone's rights because of "policy or custom," it is liable regardless of whether the "policy or custom" was established by city ordinance or state law.
A debtor in bankruptcy is only allowed to shield from creditors an amount for a car payment if they are actually purchasing or leasing the vehicle, and not if they already own it.
