United States Ninth Circuit
Morales v. Fry, 14-35944
In an unlawful arrest and excessive force action, arising from a May Day protest in Seattle, the district court's judgment is affirmed in part and reversed in part. The court held that the district court erred in referring the 'clearly established' prong of the qualified immunity analysis to the jury as it is a question of law to ultimately be decided by a judge.
