United States Ninth Circuit

In a 42 U.S.C. section 1983 action based on an unlawful search, the denial of defendants' summary judgment motion based on qualified immunity is affirmed in part where two of the defendant-officers violated plaintiff's clearly established rights, but reversed in part, where another defendant was a mere bystander to his colleagues' conduct.
