Description

Jack Rheuark, John Doescher and Robert Jordan were convicted in a Texas state court of various criminal offenses. They each sought to appeal their convictions to the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals, but were frustrated in their endeavors to do so by an inordinate delay in the transcription of the testimony and proceedings of their trials by the court reporter. Rheuark, Doescher and Jordan each filed suit under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 against the court reporter, the state court trial judge, the county in which they were tried and the commissioners thereof, alleging that they were entitled to damages and injunctive relief because the delay in the preparation of their trial records constituted a violation of their constitutional rights to a speedy appeal and due process.
