Dufort v. City of New York, 16-1715

Affirming that the due process claims of a man involved in a bar brawl that resulted in a death who was later found not-guilty at trial failed as a matter of law, but vacating and remanding the grant of summary judgment as to false arrest and malicious prosecution claims because there were disputed questions of material fact relating to key aspects of the investigation and prosecution that precluded the grant of qualified immunity at summary judgment.
