Thurgood Marshall: Court pays lip service WASHINGTON (UPI)- Supreme Court Justice Thurgood Marshall has criticized his collegues on the nation’s highest court for paying lip service to correcting constitutional violations by refusing to order strong remedies. Marshall, addressing judges of the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Ap peals, said several rulings during the court’s last term recognized violations were occuring, but the majorities in these cases did not order changes to end them. The speech, delivered in Har tford, Conn., to the appeals court that hears cases from New York, Vermont and Connecticut, was made available at the Supreme Court. Marshall said the cases “illustrate a very disturbing pat tern... The court seems to concede in each case that important federal rights are at issue and that they may have been violated. It denies the victims the only effective remedies to those violations. “When rights are violated, courts should normally craft remedies that attempt to make the victim whole and deter future violations,” he said.

In one case, Marshall said, the court approved New York’s preventive detention law for juveniles, which allows % judge to keep a minor detained for up to 17 days if the judge thinks there is a “serious risk” the child will com mit another crime. While the high court recognized detention exposes a child to prison like conditions, possible violence and sexual assault, it siad in dividuals could pursue remedies in lower courts if they felt injured by the system. “Given (the possible violence to minors). I find it shocking-that rather than make an assessment of and offered a hollow remedy foi the New York system, it instead validated, the scheme as a whole and offered a hollow remedy for individaual abuses,” he said. In a Vermont case, Marshall said the court recognized lengthy delays in processing Social Security benefit terminations were causing great hardship to the handicapped, but said Congress, not the judiciary must provide relief.
