Issue: Whether the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit erred, so as to warrant summary reversal, by refusing qualified immunity without identifying any precedent finding a Fourth Amendment violation based on similar facts and, indeed, overriding its own cases holding an officer would not violate the Constitution under the circumstances the jury found.
