Many current and former inmates have been wrongly infected with Valley Fever as a result of misconduct of California State officials and Federal officials. Unfortunately, on September 17, 2015, in the case of Jackson v. Brown, 1:13-cv-01055-LJO-SAB, the United States District Court for the Eastern District of California dismissed all 8th amendment claims (leaving only potential claims brought by inmates of African descent, based solely on intentional racism).
The matter is on appeal. Jackson v. State of Cal., No. 15-17076.
No other information will be available on this site until that decision in that matter is issued.
