U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 16-2404
U.S. District Court for the District of Nebraska - Lincoln
[PUBLISHED] [Colloton, Author, with Beam and Gruender, Circuit Judges]
Civil case - Civil rights. In action alleging defendants violated
plaintiff's First and Fourth Amendment rights by engaging in an inspection
and condemnation of his motel in retaliation for his disputing whether a
city lodging tax applied to his motel, the district court erred in denying
the city attorney's motion for summary judgment based on qualified
immunity with respect to plaintiff's First Amendment retaliation claim;
plaintiff did not have a clearly established right to be free from
regulatory enforcement that is otherwise supported by probable cause.
