Anthony A. v. Commissioner of Correction
Annotate this Case
The Supreme Court reversed the judgment of the habeas court denying Petitioner's amended petition for a writ of habeas corpus, holding that Petitioner's classification as a sex offender violated his right to procedural due process under both the federal constitution and Conn. Const. art. I, 9.
In his habeas corpus petition, Petitioner alleged that the Commissioner of Correction violated his right to procedural due process in classifying him as a sex offender and that the habeas court erred in determining that the challenged classification did not violate his right to substantive due process or his right not to be punished "except in cases clearly warranted by law," under article first, section nine. The Supreme Court reversed, holding that Petitioner's classification as a sex offender violated his right to procedural due process.
