CA5: Revd for failure to determine “clearly established law” for QI

“Both parties and the district court failed to address qualified immunity’s second question. The district court did not consider whether Defendants’ conduct—even assuming it violated the Fourth Amendment—violated clearly established law. See Morrow, 917 F.3d at 874. McDonald points to no such law on appeal. On remand, the parties and the district court must focus on whether clearly established law at the time of this police raid prohibited the force used under the circumstances. See Escondido, 139 S. Ct. at 503-04.” McDonald v. McClelland, 2019 U.S. App. LEXIS 20581 (5th Cir. July 11, 2019).*

Plaintiff’s § 1983 case fails because it was filed outside the statute of limitations. Leonard v. Polk County Sheriff Dep’t, 2019 U.S. App. LEXIS 20535 (11th Cir. July 10, 2019).*
