Christopher Lee Price, Petitioner v. Jefferson S. Dunn, Commissioner, Alabama Department of Corrections, et al.

1. Has an Alabama death row inmate shown that pentobarbital is “available” to the ADOC where he proves that pentobarbital is easily made by any compounding pharmacy, multiple states are presently able to obtain the drug for use in executions, and the ADOC failed to undertake “ordinary transactional efforts” to obtain the drug? 2. If a state’s lethal injection protocol will cause the inmate to experience gruesome and brutal pain, is the state entitled to proceed with the execution anyways, merely because the state cannot immediately obtain alternative drugs known to be effective in accomplishing a humane lethal injection execution?
