   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  20-2752
   U.S. District Court for the District of South Dakota - Central   
   [PUBLISHED] [Smith, Author, with Shepherd and Grasz, Circuit Judges] 
   Civil case - Civil rights. In this action plaintiff sued the City of 
   Pierre, South Dakota and one of its police officers under Section 1983 
   alleging a search warrant compelling his forced catheterization violated 
   his Fourth Amendment rights; in the state criminal case which followed the 
   search, plaintiff unsuccessfully challenged the admission of the evidence 
   obtained under the warrant, and his motion to suppress was denied; 
   plaintiff later pleaded nolo contendere to the criminal charges and did 
   not appeal the suppression ruling. Held: the district court did not err in 
   holding that plaintiff was collaterally estopped from re-litigating his 
   claim because he had already litigated the Fourth Amendment issue before 
   the South Dakota trial court in the criminal proceeding against him.
