U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 05-3480
District of Minnesota
[PUBLISHED] [Loken, Author, with Beam and Arnold, Circuit Judges]
Civil case - civil rights. Deliberate indifference is the appropriate
standard of culpability for all claims that prison officials failed to
provide pretrial detainees with adequate food, clothing, shelter,
medical care and reasonable safety; under this standard, the district
court did not err in granting defendants summary judgment on plaintiff's
claim that they were deliberately indifferent to the risk of contracting
TB in the jail, as the jail adopted and followed detailed procedures for
the diagnosis, segregation and treatment of any inmate with active TB.
