201821P.pdf   08/19/2021  Leroy Leftwich  v.  County of Dakota
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  20-1821
   U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota   
[PUBLISHED] [Loken, Author, with Colloton and Benton, Circuit Judges] Civil case - Civil rights. In this case where plaintiff's decedent committed suicide while detained at the Dakota County Jail, the individually-named defendants did not have actual knowledge of a risk of suicide and were not deliberately indifferent to such a risk; as a result, there was no constitutional violation, and the individual defendants, as well as the City and County, were entitled to summary judgment on the Section 1983 claims; the district court did not err in determining defendants Wegner and Swanson had public official immunity for plaintiff's Minnesota wrongful death claims as they were performing discretionary duties; the County was, as a result, entitled to vicarious official immunity; the County is entitled to public entity or statutory immunity because the County's decision to have a mental health exam performed within 72 rather than 24 hours of incarceration is a policy making and not an operational government decision; the district court did not abuse its substantial discretion by denying plaintiff's motions to amend the scheduling order and file an amended complaint after the deadlines had passed.
