§ 1443 removal — Strauder-Rives doctrine
Removal is warranted only if it can be predicted by reference to a law of general application that the defendant will be denied or cannot enforce the specified federal rights in the state courts. A state statute authorizing the denial affords an ample basis for such a prediction.
How often courts cite the case defining “denied or cannot enforce”
Court decisions citing the opinion that defined “denied or cannot enforce” — 1,422 in all, by decade. Counts are citations to the defining case as a whole, not verified uses of the term. The dip in the most recent years is a data-coverage gap, not a real trend — our corpus holds fewer opinions from the latest years.
