    Goal of Nation's First Opioid Court: Keep Users Alive

    By Carolyn Thompson | July 10, 2017

    After three defendants fatally overdosed in a single week last year, it became clear that Buffalo's ordinary drug treatment court was no match for the heroin and painkiller crisis. Now the city is experimenting with the nation's first opioid crisis intervention court, which can get users into treatment within hours of their arrest, requires them to check in with a judge every day for a month, and puts them on strict curfews. Administering justice takes a back seat to the overarching goal of simply keeping defendants alive.

Schwartz writes that the U.S. Supreme Court recently overturned the Ninth Circuit's "provocation doctrine" on the ground that it was inconsistent with Fourth Amendment excessive force jurisprudence. The court held that whether officers who conduct an unconstitutional search are liable for injuries from their subsequent use of force depends upon the application of traditional proximate cause principles—but applying proximate causation in these circumstances is easier said than done.
