   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  19-1469
   U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri - St. Louis   
   [PUBLISHED] [Shepherd, Author, with Colloton and Erickson, Circuit Judges] 
   Civil case - Civil rights. On remand from the Supreme Court for further 
   consideration. Lombardo v. City of St. Louis, 141 S. Ct. 2239 (2021). For 
   the court's prior opinion, see Lombardo v. City of St. Louis, 956 F.3d 
   1009 (8th Cir. 2020). The court now determines that the defendant police 
   officers are entitled to qualified immunity because the right in question 
   - to be free from the use of a prone restraint under the circumstances 
   presented - was not clearly established at the time of the plaintiffs' 
   son's death; the City is not liable for a policy of deliberate 
   indifference in the absence of a clearly established constitutional right.

   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  19-1469
   U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri - St. Louis   
   [PUBLISHED] [Shepherd, Author, with Colloton and Erickson, Circuit Judges] 
   Civil case - Civil rights. The district court did not err in concluding 
   the defendant police officers were entitled to qualified immunity on 
   plaintiffs' Fourth Amendment excessive force claims; under this court's 
   precedents, the officers' actions in using a prone restraint was not 
   objectively unreasonable when the detainee actively resisted the officers' 
   directives and efforts to subdue him; as the officers did not apply 
   constitutionally excessive force against the prisoner, the court need not 
   evaluate the "clearly established' prong of the qualified immunity 
   analysis.
