093889P.pdf   08/17/2010  Timothy Shannon  v.  Officer Michael Koehler
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  09-3889
   U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Iowa - Sioux City   
   [PUBLISHED] [Gruender, Author, with Loken and Arnold, Circuit Judges]
   Civil case - civil rights. District court did not err in denying defendant
   police officer's motion for summary judgment based on qualified
   immunity as plaintiff's evidence was adequate to support a claim that
   officer used excessive force, and a reasonable officer would have known
   that his actions were unlawful under the circumstances; that portion of
   the appeal which was taken by the city and police chief is dismissed for
   lack of jurisdiction, as the district court's denial of qualified immunity to
   the arresting officer did not resolve whether the city and police chief were
   entitled to summary judgment on plaintiff's Monell claims.
