United States Ninth Circuit

In a challenge to a restriction that was temporarily imposed on plaintiff's right to receive visits from his three minor children while he was in prison, the denial of defendants' motion to dismiss the complaint is reversed where a reasonable prison official could have believed that terminating plaintiff's right to receive visits from his children was lawful, in light of clearly established law and the information he possessed.
