This lesson provides legal training for jailers and correctional  officers through an analysis of three Target Cases answering the  following questions:

- Can jailers confiscate forms from inmates when those forms could be used to file fraudulent liens?

- What is Ramadan?

- What obligation do jailers have to accommodate inmates’ nutritional requirements during Ramadan?

- When does a jailer have an obligation to help an inmate seek medical care?

- Does an inmate’s constitutional right to medical care include illnesses that do not present an apparent risk of death?

- When an inmate’s own behavior causes a serious medical need to arise, what is the jailer’s responsibility?
