United States Sixth Circuit
Allison v. City of E. Lansing, 06-1173
In a 42 U.S.C. section 1983 suit brought by university employees alleging Fourth Amendment violations that occurred during a city fire department's response to a possible anthrax contamination at a university, city's appeal from a jury verdict in favor of plaintiffs is dismissed where the city failed to move for judgment as a matter of law post-verdict as required by Fed. R. Civ. P. Rule 50(b), and thus, the appellate court was without jurisdiction to consider the merits its claim.
