Framing Analysis
The Supreme Court on Monday granted review in a case brought by Alaskan pilot Ken Jouppi, who contests the state's civil forfeiture of his 1969 Cessna aircraft after a passenger attempted to transport a six-pack of beer into a dry village. Jouppi maintains he had no knowledge of the alcohol. The case centers on questions of innocent-owner protections and due process in civil asset forfeiture proceedings.
