Supreme Court of the United States

Ortiz v. Breslin

February 22, 2022

Summary

Justice Sotomayor denied the petition for a writ of certiorari, noting that the petition did not meet the Court’s criteria for review. She highlighted serious constitutional concerns with New York’s residency restriction for level‑three sex offenders, particularly its impact on due‑process liberty interests. The denial leaves the lower courts' rulings in place.
