102095P.pdf 07/28/2011 Ricky Moore v. City of Desloge
U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 10-2095
U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri - St. Louis
[PUBLISHED] [Riley, Author, with Loken and Colloton, Circuit Judges]
Civil case - civil rights. District court correctly determined plaintiff
could not rely upon the offensive nonmutual collateral estoppel doctrine
to establish that defendant Officer Malady violated plaintiff's Fourth and
Fourteenth Amendment rights as the officer did not have an interest in the
outcome of the criminal proceedings against plaintiff; district court did not
err in admitting the state court warrant for plaintiff's arrest as the
warrant, a self-authenticating, non-hearsay document, was relevant to show
the police reasonably believed that there was a warrant for the arrest;
even if admission of the warrant was error, the error was harmless; district
court did not abuse its discretion by accepting an untimely brief in support
of an opposition to plaintiff's motion for summary judgment; because
plaintiff failed to establish his claim that Officer Malady violated his
rights, he could not state a claim that the City failed to properly train or
supervise Malady.
