The companion case to Goldberg was Wheeler. It is a short decision because it relies heavily on the reasoning in Goldberg. The facts are different, however, in that the kinds of benefits that were terminated were welfare benefits relating to old age. In an essay, argue whether or not Goldberg and Wheeler stand for the proposition that “only welfare benefits for people in extreme circumstances (impoverished families, elderly poor) are entitled to pre-termination hearings.” Are there other forms of public benefits that require this kind of process, or is this kind of elaborate process only for welfare? Why or why not? READ THE FOLLOWING: Goldberg v. Kelly, 397 U.S. 254 (1970) Wheeler v. Montgomery, 397 U.S. 280 (1970); a companion case to Goldberg v.
