United States Supreme Court
CHAVEZ v. MARTINEZ, 01-1444
A 42 U.S.C. section 1983 plaintiff's Fifth Amendment rights were not violated through questioning by police, where he was never charged and no statements were used against him. Questioning of plaintiff while he was being treated for gunshot wounds after an altercation with police did not violate his Fourteenth Amendment rights.
