   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  22-2206
                          and No:  22-2332
   U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri - St. Louis   
   [PUBLISHED] [Kelly, Author, with Loken and Shepherd, Circuit Judges] 
   Civil case - Civil rights. Plaintiff brought this action after St. Louis 
   police and a tow company detained her truck pursuant to a "wanted" report. 
   For the court's prior opinion in the matter, see Meier v. City of St. 
   Louis, 934 F.3d 824 (8th Cir. 2019). A reasonable jury could have found 
   that plaintiff presented sufficient evidence of a close nexus between the 
   City and the due process violation she alleged because the unlawful 
   detention of the vehicle by the tow company was fairly attributable to the 
   City; the plaintiff's judgment on her due process claim is affirmed; the 
   court declines to reverse the City's judgment as a matter of law on 
   plaintiff's unreasonable seizure claim; the district court did not abuse 
   its discretion in granting, only in part, the City's motion for an offset 
   for the sums the tow company paid in settling plaintiff's claim.
