Armstrong v. City of Melvindale (January 6, 2006) Eastern District of Michigan at Detroit
-  http://www.ca6.uscourts.gov/opinions.pdf/06a0004p-06.pdf
-  Defendants-Appellants, Southgate Police Officers David Fobar and Brad Gratz, appeal the district court's order denying their motion for summary judgment with respect to: (1) Plaintiffs-Appellees' claim of a Fourth Amendment violation, brought under 42 U.S.C. § 1983, arising out of Defendants' execution of a search warrant on the premises of Plaintiffs' business, and (2) their defense of qualified immunity. Because we find that a reasonable person in the officers' position would not have known that his conduct violated a clearly established right, we reverse the district court's denial of Defendants' motion for summary judgment on qualified immunity grounds.
