Whether a State or local official who moves to terminate prospective relief under 18 U.S.C. § 3626(b)(1)(A) bears any affirmative burden beyond demonstrating that the requisite amount of time has passed

The Prison Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (PLRA) establishes, among other things, “standards for the entry and termination of prospective relief in civil actions challenging prison conditions.” Miller v. French , 530 U.S. 327, 331 (2000). Relevant here, “such relief shall be terminable upon the motion of any party ... 2 years after the date the court granted or approved the prospective relief.” 18 U.S.C. § 3626(b)(1)(A)(i). Upon the timely filing of any such motion, “[t]he supervising court may refuse to terminate jurisdiction only if it makes [certain] written findings” specified by the PLRA. Imprisoned Citizens Union v. Ridge , 169 F.3d 178, 182 (3d Cir. 1999) (Alito, J.) (citing § 3626(b)(3)). The question presented is: Whether a State or local official who moves to terminate prospective relief under 18 U.S.C. § 3626(b)(1)(A) bears any affirmative burden beyond demonstrating that the requisite amount of time has passed.
