Do plaintiffs have standing to assert the Sixth Amendment counsel possessed by their client?
MultiRegion, United States of America
The following excerpt is from Keker v. Procunier, 398 F. Supp. 756 (E.D. Cal. 1975):
Accordingly, it is the opinion of this court that the plaintiffs herein have standing to assert the Sixth Amendment right of counsel possessed by their client. See also Russo v. Byrne, 409 U.S. 1219, 93 S.Ct. 21, 34 L.Ed.2d 30 (1972). Since the parties to this action have not addressed the question whether both
[398 F. Supp. 766]
damages and injunctive relief might be available on the Sixth Amendment issue, this court takes no position on the question at this time.[398 F. Supp. 766]
