- The use of lethal injection had been suspended in the state since February 2006 because of objections of cruel and unusual punishment for shortcomings of the facilities and procedures previously in use at San Quentin State Prison. Brown's lawyers appealed to block their client's execution, with the execution initially planned to be carried out in a new facility at the prison that is certified to use either a single or three-drug protocol.The US Ninth Court of Appeals ordered US District Judge Jeremy D.
- Fogel to review the case and noted that the execution date may have been influenced by the fact that the prison's inventory of sodium thiopental, one of the drugs required for lethal injection, would expire on October 1, 2010.
- Judge Fogel halted the execution to permit time to review whether the new injection procedures addressed previous objections.
- On September 29, 2010, the Supreme Court of California unanimously denied an appeal by the state to proceed by the end of the month.
- Brown's execution was then delayed because the prison's supply of the lethal injection drug had expired.
- The manufacturer of sodium thiopental stated that new supplies would not be available until 2011.
