Supreme Court lets stand ruling on inmates cash forfeiture
The high court refused to hear Nebraska's challenge to a ruling that prison officials cannot permanently confiscate inmate funds without a legal framework. The 8th Circuit decision blocks permanent seizure, requiring a chance to explain how funds were obtained, and allowing state law to authorize forfeiture. The ruling covers Nebraska and other 8th Circuit states.

Thone defending voluntary systems and opposing mandatory reporting while critics led by Lester Norton warned of constitutional risks. Support came from Packers and Stockyards chief Jennings and industry groups urged clearer, accurate price data amid concerns over formula pricing manipulation.
