QUESTION 2
One hundred and fifty prisoners in state prisons in Idaho have been transferred to a state prison in Texas because the Idaho system is overcrowded and has no space for them. The state of Idaho will pay Texas to house their inmates until beds in Idaho are available. That may take several years because the state legislature will have to vote to appropriate additional funds to the Idaho system and then the space will have to be built. Texas has decreased its prison population over the last few years and has the beds available. It will be extremely difficult for the Idaho prisoners housed in Texas to visit with family and friends. There are rehabilitation programs available in the Idaho system that are not available in Texas. There are rumors that the Texas inmates who are housed with the Idaho inmates are not receptive to the situation. The Idaho inmates in Texas decide to file a lawsuit. Analyze their chances for success. 1 page minimum.
