In a a claim by family of student-plaintiff for violation of constitutional rights by malicious prosecution for marijuana trafficking, judgment of district court in favor of defendant-county is affirmed where: 1) plaintiff failed to void a waiver of any of action because the act or omission was outside the scope of the officer's office in the only way provided by the statutory scheme, to which plaintiff had elected as a part of the quid pro quo; 2) plaintiff failed to produce any probative evidence to support his assertion that defendant-county failed to train officer; 3) plaintiff lacked standing to challenge university's policy where he failed to demonstrate a credible threat of future injury; and 4) circumstances were not "unusual and limited" enough to warrant reformation of lower court order barring plaintiff from advancing wrongful death claim.
