132680P.pdf   08/14/2014  Kathleen Meehan  v.  Officer Scott Thompson
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  13-2680
   U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota - Minneapolis   
[PUBLISHED] [Wollman, Author, with Melloy and Benton, Circuit Judges] Civil case - Civil Rights. The district court erred in denying the defendant police officer's motion for summary judgment based on qualified immunity; the officer established beyond genuine factual dispute that plaintiff was intoxicated at the time of her arrest and presented some danger to herself; as the law regarding whether defendant had probable cause to arrest plaintiff in his capacity as a community caretaker and take her to a detox center was not clear at the time of plaintiff's arrest, defendant did not violate a clearly established constitutional right and was entitled to qualified immunity; defendant was also entitled to qualified immunity on plaintiff's state-law battery and false imprisonment claims.
