What state contributed to a federal courts decision to abolish the hands off doctrine?
The state of Arkansas contributed to the federal courts' decision to abolish the hands-off doctrine through the case of Pugh v. Locke in 1972. In this case, the U.S. District Court ruled that the conditions in Arkansas prisons violated the Eighth Amendment's prohibition against cruel and unusual punishment. This decision marked a shift towards greater judicial intervention in prison affairs, rejecting the hands-off approach that had previously limited federal courts' involvement in prison management. The ruling set a precedent for increased oversight of prison conditions nationwide.

What is the silver platter doctrine?
The silver platter doctrine was a legal principle in the United States that allowed evidence obtained by state law enforcement officers, in violation of federal constitutional protections, to be used in federal prosecutions. This doctrine arose from the idea that if state officials gathered evidence without federal involvement, it could be presented to federal courts as if it had been lawfully obtained. However, it was effectively overturned by the Supreme Court's decision in Elkins v. United States (1960), which established that federal courts must adhere to the same constitutional standards of evidence as state courts. Consequently, the doctrine is no longer applicable in contemporary legal proceedings.
