   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  20-1050
   U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Iowa - Des Moines   
   [PUBLISHED] [Shepherd, Author, with Erickson and Kobes, Circuit Judges] 
   Civil case - Civil rights. In this Section 1983 action alleging wrongful 
   arrest and detention, the district court erred in denying defendants' 
   motion for summary judgment based on qualified immunity; the record 
   establishes that the officers had probable cause to arrest defendant for 
   assault based on the victim's identification of defendant as one of his 
   attackers, and there was no factual dispute on this issue which precluded 
   the entry of summary judgment in defendants' favor; with respect to 
   plaintiff's claim that the defendants wrongfully detained him, this 
   decision was not made by the named defendants, but rather by the city 
   prosecuting attorney; as such, plaintiff had no standing to pursue this 
   claim against the named defendants.
