   U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Iowa - Davenport   
[PUBLISHED] [Colloton, Author, with Smith, Chief Judge, and Erickson, Circuit Judge] Civil case - Civil rights. At the time of the police shooting in question, it was not clearly established that a police officer was forbidden to discharge his firearm when suddenly confronted in close quarters by a noncompliant suspect armed with a knife, and the district court did not err in granting the police officer's motion for summary judgment based on qualified immunity. Judge Erickson, concurring in the judgment.
