    Parmaei v. Smith, 4th Cir. (2007)

    Uploaded by

    Scribd Government Docs
    Khosrow Parmaei appealed a district court order denying relief under 28 U.S.C. § 2254, which allows state prisoners to challenge the constitutionality of their incarceration. The district court properly found that Parmaei's action, which challenged a state court's civil judgment against him in a wrongful death case, was unrelated to his custody status and was not properly characterized as a habeas action. The Fourth Circuit affirmed the district court's ruling and denied Parmaei's motion to prepare a trial transcript at government expense.
