   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  17-3705
   U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Iowa - Ft. Dodge   
   [PUBLISHED] [Benton, Author, with Wollman and Colloton, Circuit Judges] 
   Civil case - Civil rights. The district court did not err in determining 
   defendant jailer Dingman was entitled to qualified immunity on plaintiff's 
   claim the jailer used excessive force during plaintiff's booking 
   procedure; a reasonable officer could believe plaintiff was trying to 
   leave the holding cell, thereby justifying the use of force to maintain 
   order and security; further, the officer could reasonably interpret 
   plaintiff's actions as passive resistance and a threat to his safety; 
   amount of force used was objectively reasonable; the district court did 
   not err in granting the jailer summary judgment on plaintiff's state-law 
   claims for assault and battery based on the court's determination that the 
   amount of force used was objectively reasonable.
