Overview: Rights conferred by 42 U.S.C.S. §§ 1396d(a)(13) and 1396a(a)(30)(A) were clearly established federal rights that were enforceable by recipients and providers through a private § 1983 action. Directors were not entitled to qualified immunity since their failure to act in the needy children's best interest violated those clearly established rights.

View this case - free  

Overview: Because defendant offered no evidence of the relative culpabilities of other participants in the offense, and his offense was a serious drug trafficking offense, which required considerable planning and time committment on his part, district court's downward departures under U.S. Sentencing Guidelines Manual §§ 3B1.2, 5K2.20, were erroneous.
