Federal Agents Who Violate Individual Rights Can Be Sued For Damages, Supreme Court Rules

"But since RFRA doesn’t explicitly define what counts as “appropriate relief,” the case sought to determine “whether ‘appropriate relief’ includes claims for money damages against Government officials in their individual capacities.” By a vote of 8-0, the court agreed with Tanvir that it does. (Since oral argument occurred before Amy Coney Barrett’s confirmation, she did not participate in the case.)

“In the context of suits against government officials, damages have long been awarded as appropriate relief” and have “coexisted with our constitutional system since the dawn of the Republic,” Justice Clarence Thomas wrote for the court. Moreover, suing for damages is not just “appropriate,” Thomas noted, “it is also the only form of relief that can remedy some RFRA violations.” For Tanvir’s lost income and “wasted plane tickets, effective relief consists of damages, not an injunction.”

  1. In cases where a urine test doesn’t produce satisfactory results, blood tests come to the rescue. A blood test is a long and meticulous test and requires more sophisticated equipment. It can detect weed in your system for up to 45–60 days if you are a regular weed user.The testing of saliva to detect the presence of drugs is the least commonly used method. A saliva test is performed rapidly and is a part of the federal government or roadside law enforcement drug test. It screens the swab of a person’s mouth to detect the presence of drugs in it. It serves as an easy alternative to urine tests. Saliva retains THC traces for about 1–7 days in some cases.A person getting drug tested with the hair follicle method faces a real challenge. It is the fastest-growing and most technologically advanced method of detecting drugs. The hair follicle test is gaining rapid popularity among the government and other organizations because of its ability to detect drugs consumed about 90–120 days ago.There are several individual factors that determine how long THC (more specifically Delta-9) remains in your body.   Sold by Test Negative, it allows you to discreetly carry the syntTest Negative Clear Choice Incognito Belt Synthetic urine bag. The belt is a lightweight device that is operated by gravity and can deliver urine into the sample container during the test. The urine passes smoothly from the bladder bag through a rubber drain tube fitted to the belt after you open the clip. This synthetic urine is free of toxins and biocides and contains all of the natural compounds of human pee.
