181057P.pdf   03/08/2019  Tamela Muir  v.  Decatur County, Iowa
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  18-1057
   U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Iowa - Des Moines   
   [PUBLISHED] [Melloy, Author, with Loken and Erickson, Circuit Judges] 
   Civil Case - Civil Rights. District court erred in denying qualified 
   immunity to county and sheriff following the termination of former 
   sheriff's wife after former sheriff was removed from office. The 
   termination of the wife did not amount to a constitutional violation of 
   the right to intimate association because the termination did not directly 
   and substantially interfere with their marriage, discourage their 
   marriage, make their marriage practically impossible or act with the goal 
   of poisoning their marriage, and was nothing more than a collateral effect 
   on her marriage. Because there was no unconstitutional act, there was no 
   municipal liability either.
