   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  00-1822
   Eastern District of Arkansas   
Prisoner case - prisoner civil rights. Considering all of the admissible evidence in the summary-judgment record, plaintiff failed to create a genuine issue of material fact as to whether a reasonable prison officer would have known he was violating plaintiff's decedent's Eighth Amendment rights either before or after the man collapsed while working on the prison hoe squad; officers' actions were objectively reasonable in light of what they knew at the time of the incident; district court erred in denying officers' motion for summary judgment based on qualified immunity, and the case is remanded with directions to dismiss.
