Thesis (M.H.)--University of Colorado at Denver, 2016.

While most people know there are problems with and because of mass incarceration in the United States, many are unaware of the vast amount of legal liabilities facing felons after their sentence. For instance, many people think that felons cannot vote, but almost all of the states return this right after finishing a sentence (three do not); however, most people do not realize that felonies can prevent people from getting many jobs, significantly delay or prevent attaining occupational licenses, and make renting property incredibly difficult. In this thesis, I explore the legal aspects of civil disability---the legal limitations facing and restricting felons after finishing their sentences (also referred to as "collateral consequences" or "civil disabilities") using content analysis and legal review. In the process, I look at the ways a felon could escape civil disability through sealing, expungement, pardons, and possible future methods like Supreme Court interventions---particularly the case for considering felons as a suspect class offered by Geiger. I end by arguing that the large network of civil disabilities are invidious discrimination under the models offered by Ely, Fiss, and Hellman and creates something like, but not quite, civil death for felons: civil maiming.
