Summary
This legal document, filed on April 29, 2021, is a letter from attorney Bobbi C. Sternheim to the Court regarding the confinement conditions of her client, Ms. Maxwell, at the MDC. Sternheim requests the Court to order the MDC to stop the disruptive 15-minute flashlight surveillance of Ms. Maxwell and argues that the threat of placing her in the Special Housing Unit (SHU) is ironic and unwarranted, as her only contact is with staff.

LAW OFFICES OF BOBBI C. STERNHEIM
The MDC routinely places inmates in the SHU if they have engaged in physical altercation with other inmates or to protect inmates who are the subject of abuse. It would be ironic if the MDC follows through with its threat to place Ms. Maxwell in the SHU: It would signal that Ms. Maxwell needs protection from the very staff so intent on protecting her, since she has no contact with anyone but staff.
As suggested by the Circuit, we ask the Court to address Ms. Maxwell’s sleeping conditions by directing the MDC to cease 15-minute light surveillance of Ms. Maxwell or justify the need for the disruptive flashlight surveillance.
Very truly yours,
Bobbi C. Sternheim
