   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  21-1428
   U.S. District Court for the District of Nebraska - Lincoln   
   [PUBLISHED] [Kelly, Author, with Benton and Erickson, Circuit Judges] 
   Civil Case ? Civil Rights. After his acquittal, Allen brought civil 
   rights action against two police officers, alleging they conspired to 
   provide false statements in an affidavit of probable cause executed after 
   his arrest, resulting in his unreasonable arrest, false imprisonment, and 
   malicious prosecution. The district court?s grant of qualified immunity 
   to the officers is affirmed, as the affidavit provided arguable probable 
   cause for his arrest even without the allegedly false statements. 
   Reviewing the uncontested portions of the affidavit, and viewed in 
   totality with the relevant circumstances, the affidavit with the alleged 
   falsehoods removed still supports probable cause and thus the district 
   court did not err in concluding the officers were entitled to qualified 
   immunity.
