Rumsfeld v Padilla
UGA P/P143/1/2/42/1 · File · 08/05/2002-2004
Part of Personal

Case relates to an American citizen, “seized on American soil away from any recognized or traditional field of battle and held incommunicado for more than a year without any charge being filed against him, without any access to counsel, and without any right to challenge the basis for his detention before a United States judge or magistrate", as per "Amici's Interest" in brief.

Rumsfeld v. Padilla, 542 U.S. 426 (2004), was a United States Supreme Court case, in which José Padilla, an American citizen, sought habeas corpus relief against Secretary of Defence Donald Rumsfeld, as a result of his detention by the military as an "unlawful combatant."

The case was petitioned to the United States Supreme Court. The principal issue before the Court was whether the Congressional Authorization for Use of Military Force post September 11, 2001, gave the president the powers to detain a United States citizen under military custody by classifying the detainee as an "enemy combatant."
