COMPLAINT
I.

INTRODUCTION

1. Plaintiff, Human Rights Defense Center (“HRDC” or “Plaintiff”) brings this action to
enjoin Defendants’ censorship of books sent from Plaintiff and other publishers to prisoners held
by the Kentucky Department of Corrections (“KDOC”), in violation of the First and Fourteenth
Amendments of the United States Constitution. Defendants have adopted and implemented mail
policies prohibiting delivery of written speech from Plaintiff and other speakers, failed to provide
adequate due process notice of and an opportunity to challenge the censorship, and denied Plaintiff
equal protection as required under the Constitution.

II.

JURISDICTION AND VENUE

2. This action is brought pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1331 (federal question), as this action arises
under the Constitution and laws of the United States, and pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1343 (civil
rights), as this action seeks redress for civil rights violations under 42 U.S.C. § 1983.
3. Venue is proper under 28 U.S.C. § 1391(b). At least one Defendant resides within this
judicial district, and a substantial part of the events or omissions giving rise to the claims asserted
herein all occurred within this judicial district.
4. HRDC’s claims for relief are predicated upon 42 U.S.C. § 1983, which authorizes actions
to redress the deprivation, under color of state law, of rights, privileges and immunities secured to
HRDC by the First and Fourteenth Amendments to the U.S. Constitution and the laws of the United
States.
5. This Court has jurisdiction over claims seeking declaratory and injunctive relief pursuant
to 28 U.S.C. §§ 2201 and 2202, and Rules 57 and 65 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, as
well as nominal and compensatory damages, against all Defendants.
6. HRDC’s claim for attorneys’ fees and costs is predicated upon 42 U.S.C. § 1988, which
authorizes the award of attorneys’ fees and costs to prevailing plaintiffs in actions brought pursuant
to 42 U.S.C. § 1983.
7. HRDC is informed, believes, and based thereon alleges that the individual Defendants
acted as described herein with the intent to injure, vex, annoy and harass HRDC, and subjected
HRDC to cruel and unjust hardship in conscious disregard of HRDC’s rights with the intention of
causing HRDC injury and depriving it of its constitutional rights.
8. As a result of the foregoing, HRDC seeks injunctive and declaratory relief, as well as
compensatory and punitive damages against the individual Defendants.

III. PARTIES
9. The Human Rights Defense Center is a not-for-profit charitable organization recognized
under § 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, incorporated in the state of Washington, and with
principal offices in Lake Worth, Florida. The purpose of HRDC, as stated in its Articles of
Incorporation, is to educate prisoners and the public about the constitutional rights of prisoners,
conditions in American jails and prisons, and the economic and social costs of mass incarceration.
HRDC accomplishes its mission through litigation, advocacy, and publication and/or distribution
of books, magazines and other information concerning prisons and prisoner rights.
10.

Defendant Rodney Ballard was the Commissioner of the KDOC from March 2016 until

his resignation in May 2017. No successor to Defendant Ballard’s position has been appointed.
While he was Commissioner, Defendant Ballard had ultimate responsibility for the promulgation
and enforcement of all KDOC staff policies and procedures and was responsible for the overall
management of the KDOC, to include processing of mail. Defendant Ballard is sued in his
individual capacity. Plaintiff further intends to amend the instant Complaint to add the new
Commissioner for KDOC when that office is filled.
11.

Defendant Jim Erwin is currently the acting Commissioner of the KDOC, and is

currently overseeing the KDOC’s operations until a new commissioner is appointed. Defendant
Erwin has ultimate responsibility for the promulgation and enforcement of all KDOC staff policies
and procedures and is responsible for the overall management of the KDOC, to include processing
of mail. Defendant Erwin is sued in his individual and official capacities.
12.

Defendant Kimberly Potter-Blair is the Deputy Commissioner for Support Services of

the KDOC. Defendant Potter-Blair is responsible for the promulgation and implementation of

3

Case: 3:17-cv-00057-GFVT Doc #: 1 Filed: 07/17/17 Page: 4 of 15 - Page ID#: 4

policies, procedures, and practices at the KDOC. Defendant Potter-Blair is sued in her individual
and official capacities.
13.

Defendant Chris Kleymeyer is the Director of the KDOC Division of Operations &

Programs. As such, Defendant Kleymeyer oversees the KDOC’s Policy & Procedure Branch,
which is responsible for the adoption and implementation of the mail policies at the KDOC, and/or
for the hiring, screening, training, retention, supervision, discipline, counseling and/or control of
KDOC staff who interpret and implement the mail policies. Defendant Kleymeyer is sued in his
individual and official capacities.
14.

Defendants Ashley Short and Debbie Kays are employed in the KDOC’s Policy &

Procedure Branch. As such, they were responsible for the adoption and implementation of the
mail policies at the KDOC, and/or for the hiring, screening, training, retention, supervision,
discipline, counseling and/or control of KDOC staff who interpret and implement the mail policies.
Defendants Short and Kays are both sued in their individual and official capacities.
15.

The true names and identities of Defendants DOES 1 through 20 are presently unknown

to HRDC. Each of Defendants DOES 1 through 20 are or were employed by and are or were
agents of Defendants when some or all of the challenged inmate mail policies and practices were
adopted and/or implemented. Each of Defendants DOES 1 through 20 were personally involved
in the adoption and/or implementation of the mail policies at the KDOC, and/or were responsible
for the hiring, screening, training, retention, supervision, discipline, counseling, and/or control of
the KDOC staff who interpret and implement these mail policies. HRDC will seek to amend this
Complaint as soon as the true names and identities of Defendants DOES 1 through 20 have been
ascertained.

FACTUAL ALLEGATIONS

HRDC’s Mission and Outreach to the KDOC
For more than 26 years, the focus of HRDC’s mission has been public education,

advocacy and outreach on behalf of, and for the purpose of assisting, prisoners who seek legal
redress for infringements of their constitutionally guaranteed and other basic human rights.
HRDC’s mission, if realized, has a salutary effect on public safety.
19.

As part of its mission to educate prisoners and the public about prisons, HRDC

publishes and distributes publications including: 1) an award-winning, 72-page monthly magazine
titled Prison Legal News: Dedicated to Protecting Human Rights, which contains news and
analysis about prisons, jails and other detention facilities, prisoners’ rights, court opinions,
management of prison facilities, prison conditions, and other matters pertaining to the rights and/or
interests of incarcerated individuals; and 2) approximately fifty (50) different softcover books
about the criminal justice system, legal reference books, and self-help books of interest to
prisoners. These books are designed to foster a better understanding of prisoners’ rights and
criminal justice policies and to allow prisoners to educate themselves about related issues, such as
legal research, how to write a business letter, health care issues, and similar topics.
20.

Accordingly, HRDC engages in core protected speech and expressive conduct on

matters of public concern, such as the operation of prison facilities, prison conditions, prisoner
health and safety, and prisoners’ rights. HRDC’s publications, as described above, contain

5

Case: 3:17-cv-00057-GFVT Doc #: 1 Filed: 07/17/17 Page: 6 of 15 - Page ID#: 6

political speech and social commentary, which are core First Amendment rights and are entitled
to the highest protection afforded by the United States Constitution.
21.

HRDC has thousands of customers in the United States and abroad, including prisoners,

attorneys, journalists, public libraries, judges, and members of the general public.

HRDC

distributes its publications to prisoners and law librarians in more than 2,600 correctional facilities
located across all fifty states, including the Federal Bureau of Prisons, KDOC and various state
and local facilities within the Commonwealth of Kentucky. Within KDOC alone, HRDC has sent
its publications to the following facilities: Bell County Forestry Camp, Blackburn Correctional
Complex, Eastern Kentucky Correctional Complex, Green River Correctional Complex, Kentucky
Correctional Institution for Women, Kentucky State Penitentiary, Kentucky State Reformatory,
Little Sandy Correctional Complex, Luther Luckett Correctional Complex, Northpoint Training
Center, Roederer Correctional Complex, and Western Kentucky Correctional Complex.
22.

HRDC has sent its monthly magazine, Prison Legal News, to numerous prisoners in the

KDOC. The magazine has not been censored by Defendants; instead, it is delivered to the intended
prisoner-recipients.
23.

Unlike the magazine, however, Defendants have adopted a policy and practice of

arbitrarily prohibiting receipt of various HRDC’s books sent to individual prisoners held by the
KDOC. Specifically, since July 2016, HRDC has sent numerous softcover books to prisoners held
by the KDOC, including: 1) The Habeas Citebook: Ineffective Assistance of Counsel (“Habeas
Citebook”), which describes the procedural and substantive complexities of federal habeas corpus
litigation with the goal of identifying and litigating claims involving ineffective assistance of
counsel; 2) Prisoner Diabetes Handbook: A Guide to Managing Diabetes – for Prisoners, by
Prisoners, which provides guidance on treating and managing diabetes while incarcerated; 3) the

6

Case: 3:17-cv-00057-GFVT Doc #: 1 Filed: 07/17/17 Page: 7 of 15 - Page ID#: 7

Prisoners’ Self-Help Litigation Manual, a comprehensive tool for learning about prisoner's civil
rights, and providing the necessary information and background to formulate a strong legal selfdefense for those rights; 4) Represent Yourself in Court: How to Prepare & Try a Winning Case,
which breaks down the civil trial process in easy-to-understand steps; and 5) the Merriam-Webster
Dictionary of Law.
24.

Defendants censored a substantial portion of these books and did not deliver them to the

intended prisoner-recipients in the KDOC. Since July 2016 HRDC separately sent one hundred
fifty-eight (158) softcover books to various prisoners held by the KDOC. One hundred thirty-one
(131) of these books were sent complimentary, while twenty-seven (27) were purchased by
prisoners or on behalf of prisoners.
25.

Plaintiff can identify at least twenty-six (26) books sent by HRDC to prisoners held by

the KDOC which were censored by Defendants. In one instance, a copy of the Diabetes Handbook
was returned to HRDC with the notations “MAIL ROOM KY STATE PENITENTIARY
REFUSED”, “policy 2-C-1”, and with boxes checked indicating the refusal was due to “Colored
paper/envelope/ink”, “Stickers”, “Contraband”, and “Other.” None of the other censored books
were returned to HRDC; instead, Plaintiff was notified by either the prisoner-recipient or the
KDOC itself that the book was not delivered.
26.

On information and belief, a substantial portion of the other books mailed by HRDC to

individual prisoners held by the KDOC were also censored by the Defendants.
27.

Further, in several instances Defendants failed to provide HRDC any notice or

opportunity to appeal these censorship decisions. When notice was sent by the Defendants, it did
not adequately describe the censorship or the procedure by which KDOC’s decision could be
appealed.

7

Case: 3:17-cv-00057-GFVT Doc #: 1 Filed: 07/17/17 Page: 8 of 15 - Page ID#: 8

28.

On or about August 1, 2016, HRDC received seventeen (17) separate “NOTICE OF

UNAUTHORIZED MAIL” forms from the KDOC. The forms did not state what the unauthorized
mail was, but presumably were in reference to books that HRDC had sent to prisoners at the
Kentucky State Penitentiary earlier that month. Each form referenced a different prisoner, and in
every instance gave the reason for rejection as “Free Book.”
29.

HRDC received additional NOTICE OF UNAUTHORIZED MAIL forms on or about

February 2, 2017, March 20, 2017, and April 28, 2017. These notices were in reference to three
separate books that were sent to separate prisoners at the Eastern Kentucky Correctional Complex.
In each case, the reason for rejection was “Books … not directly from publisher or authorized
distributor….” The April 28, 2017 form had an additional notation in the contraband section:
“Free.”
30.

All of the NOTICE OF UNAUTHORIZED MAIL forms referenced the appeal policy

contained in Kentucky Corrections Policy 16.2. That policy states that “[a] publisher may appeal
a decision not to deliver an item to an inmate to the Commissioner [of the Department of
Corrections].” The policy does not impose any time limit on when a publisher may enter an appeal.
31.

The NOTICE OF UNAUTHORIZED MAIL forms received on August 1, 2016 (but not

the forms received on later dates) also included the following language: “If a Publisher’s item was
returned you may file an appeal within fifteen (15) calendar days to the Commissioner of the
Department of Corrections @ 275 East Main St. Frankfort, Ky, 40601.”
32.

For all other books that were not delivered, HRDC did not receive any notice of the

KDOC’s decision to censor its mail.
33.

On or about August 16, 2016, HRDC appealed the rejection of its books at the Kentucky

State Penitentiary to Defendant Ballard. Plaintiff has not received a decision on its appeal.

8

Case: 3:17-cv-00057-GFVT Doc #: 1 Filed: 07/17/17 Page: 9 of 15 - Page ID#: 9

34.

HRDC continued to attempt to resolve the censorship issues at the KDOC by writing a

letter to the General Counsel for the Department of Corrections on January 23, 2017, outlining the
constitutional infirmities in the KDOC’s mail policies. HRDC sent a follow-up letter regarding
the same issues on April 5, 2017. HRDC has not received a response to either letter.
35.

Plaintiff will continue to mail copies of its books and other publications to subscribers,

customers and other individuals imprisoned within the KDOC, but seeks the protection of this
Court to ensure that the materials are delivered and, if not, that due process is afforded to the
Plaintiff so it may challenge the basis for any censorship.
B.
36.

Defendants’ Unconstitutional Mail Policies and Practices
Defendants’ mail policy and practice bans books sent by HRDC and other senders to

prisoners in the KDOC because the books were not purchased by prisoners, but rather were sent
to them as gifts, and/or because the sender was not on a pre-approved vendor list. Accordingly,
Defendants’ mail policies and practices violate HRDC’s First Amendment right to free speech.
37.

Defendants’ use of a pre-approved vendor list specifically excludes some publishers and

vendors, like HRDC, from sending their books to prisoners within the KDOC, while allowing other
publishers and vendors access to these same prisoners. Accordingly, Defendants’ mail policy and
practices violates HRDC’s Fourteenth Amendment right to equal protection
38.

Further, Defendants’ policy of allowing prisoners to receive purchased books, but

excluding gift books, prevents some publishers and vendors, like HRDC, from disseminating their
speech to prisoners in the KDOC, while allowing other publishers and vendors access to these
same prisoners. Accordingly, Defendants’ mail policy and practices violates HRDC’s Fourteenth
Amendment right to equal protection.

9

Case: 3:17-cv-00057-GFVT Doc #: 1 Filed: 07/17/17 Page: 10 of 15 - Page ID#: 10

39.

Lastly, Defendants engage in a policy or practice that fails to provide senders of

censored mail constitutionally adequate notice and an opportunity to appeal the censorship of the
mail to the intended prisoner. Accordingly, such policy violates HRDC’s Fourteenth Amendment
rights to due process.
40.

Said mail policies and practices are the moving force behind the constitutional violations

at issue herein.
41.

The accommodation of the free speech, expression, equal protection and due process

rights of HRDC with respect to written speech protected by the Constitution will not have any
significant impact on the prison, its staff or prisoners.
42.

Due to Defendants’ actions as described above, HRDC has suffered damages, and will

continue to suffer damages, including, but not limited to: the suppression of HRDC’s speech; the
impediment of HRDC’s ability to disseminate its political message; frustration of HRDC’s nonprofit organizational mission; the loss of potential subscribers and customers; and the inability to
recruit new subscribers and supporters, among other damages.
43.

Defendants’ actions and inactions were and are motivated by ill motive and intent, and

were and are all committed under color of law with deliberate indifference to HRDC’s rights.
44.

Defendants, and other agents of the KDOC, are responsible for or personally

participated in creating and implementing these unconstitutional policies, practices, and customs,
or for ratifying or adopting them. Further, Defendants are responsible for training and supervising
the staff persons whose conduct has injured and continues to injure HRDC.
45.

Defendants’ unconstitutional policy, practices, and customs are ongoing, continue to

violate HRDC’s rights, and were and are the moving force behind the injuries HRDC suffered as
a direct result of the constitutional violations. As such, HRDC has no adequate remedy at law.

10

Case: 3:17-cv-00057-GFVT Doc #: 1 Filed: 07/17/17 Page: 11 of 15 - Page ID#: 11

46.

Without relief from this Court HRDC will suffer irreparable injury since its fundamental

First Amendment, due process and equal protection rights are being denied. The balance of
hardships favors the Plaintiff and the public interest will be served by granting injunctive and
declaratory relief.
47.

HRDC is entitled to declaratory relief as well as injunctive relief prohibiting Defendants

from refusing to deliver publications and correspondence from HRDC and other senders without
any legal justification, and prohibiting Defendants from censoring mail without due process of
law.
IV.

CLAIMS

Count I – 42 U.S.C. § 1983
Violation of the First Amendment (Censorship)
48.

HRDC re-alleges and incorporates the allegations of Paragraphs 1 through 47 of the

Complaint as if fully set forth herein.
49.

The acts described above constitute violations of HRDC’s rights, the rights of other

publishers who have attempted to or intend to communicate with prisoners held by the KDOC,
and the rights of the prisoners confined within the KDOC, under the First Amendment to the
United States Constitution.
50.

HRDC has a constitutionally protected liberty interest in communicating with

incarcerated individuals, a right clearly established under existing case law.
51.

The conduct of Defendants was objectively unreasonable and was undertaken

recklessly, intentionally, willfully, with malice, and with deliberate indifference to the rights of
others.

11

Case: 3:17-cv-00057-GFVT Doc #: 1 Filed: 07/17/17 Page: 12 of 15 - Page ID#: 12

52.

HRDC’s injuries and the violations of its constitutional rights were directly and

proximately caused by the policies and practices of Defendants, which were and are the moving
force of the violations.
53.

Defendants’ acts described above have caused damages to HRDC, and if not enjoined,

will continue to cause damage to HRDC.
54.

HRDC seeks declaratory and injunctive relief, and nominal, compensatory and punitive

damages against all Defendants. HRDC seeks punitive damages against the individual Defendants
in their individual capacities.
Count II – 42 U.S.C. § 1983
Violation of Fourteenth Amendment (Due Process)
55.

HRDC re-alleges and incorporates the allegations of Paragraphs 1 through 54 of the

Complaint as if fully set forth herein.
56.

The acts described above constitute violations of HRDC’s rights and the rights of other

publishers who have attempted to or who intend to communicate with prisoners held by the KDOC
under the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution.
57.

Because HRDC and others outside the KDOC facilities have a liberty interest in

communicating with prisoners, HRDC and other senders have a right under the Due Process Clause
of the Fourteenth Amendment to receive notice of and an opportunity to appeal Defendants’
decisions to censor their written speech.
58.

Defendants’ policy and practice fail to provide HRDC and other senders with adequate

notice and an opportunity to be heard.
59.

The conduct of Defendants was objectively unreasonable and was undertaken

recklessly, intentionally, willfully, with malice, and with deliberate indifference to the rights of
others.
12

Case: 3:17-cv-00057-GFVT Doc #: 1 Filed: 07/17/17 Page: 13 of 15 - Page ID#: 13

60.

HRDC’s injuries and the violations of its constitutional rights were directly and

proximately caused by the policies and practices of Defendants, which are and were the moving
force of the violations.
61.

Defendants’ acts described above have caused damages to HRDC, and if not enjoined,

will continue to cause damage to HRDC.
62.

HRDC seeks declaratory and injunctive relief, and nominal and compensatory damages

against all Defendants. HRDC seeks punitive damages against the individual Defendants in their
individual capacities.
Count III – 42 U.S.C. § 1983
Violation of the Fourteenth Amendment (Equal Protection)
63.

HRDC re-alleges and incorporates the allegations of Paragraphs 1 through 62 of the

Complaint as if fully set forth herein.
64.

By permitting some publications to be delivered to prisoners within the KDOC, while

specifically excluding books sent as gifts by HRDC and other senders, Defendants violate HRDC’s
equal protection rights as guaranteed by the Fourteenth Amendment of the United States
Constitution and 42 U.S.C. § 1983.
65.

Further, Defendants’ use of a pre-approved vendor list, which does not include Plaintiff

or certain other publishers, violates HRDC’s equal protection rights as guaranteed by the
Fourteenth Amendment of the United States Constitution and 42 U.S.C. § 1983.
66.

HRDC is suffering ongoing and irreparable harm as a direct result of Defendants’

discriminatory treatment, and the harm will continue unless the conduct is enjoined by this Court.
67.

Defendants’ conduct was objectively unreasonable and was undertaken recklessly,

intentionally, willfully, with malice, and with deliberate indifference to HRDC’s rights.

13

Case: 3:17-cv-00057-GFVT Doc #: 1 Filed: 07/17/17 Page: 14 of 15 - Page ID#: 14

68.

proximately caused by the policies and practices of Defendants, which are and were the moving
force of the violations.
69.

will continue to cause damage to HRDC.
70.

HRDC seeks declaratory and injunctive relief, and nominal and compensatory damages

against all Defendants. HRDC seeks punitive damages against the individual Defendants in their
individual capacities.
