181941P.pdf   08/20/2019  William Anderson  v.  City of Minneapolis
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  18-1941
   U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota - Minneapolis   
   [PUBLISHED] [Kobes, Author, with Shepherd and Arnold, Circuit Judges] 
   Civil case - Civil rights. In action alleging plaintiff's decedent died of 
   severe hypothermia because the first responders failed to follow standard 
   operating procedures for treating hypothermia victims and, instead, 
   prematurely declared him dead, thereby cutting off further possible aid, 
   the district court granted the defendant first responders' and 
   municipalities' motions for summary judgment based on qualified immunity. 
   Held: plaintiff has failed to identify a clearly established right and the 
   defendants were entitled to qualified immunity; while the responders 
   failure to follow the medical guidelines could possibly be the basis for a 
   negligence suit, it is not the basis for a constitutional one.
