On December 5, the Supreme Court heard oral argument in Messerschmidt v. Millender. This case presents the question of whether: 1) police officers are entitled to immunity from suit when their search of a gang member’s residence was based on a warrant that a court later determined to be overly broad and not reasonably supported by probable cause, and 2) whether the standard applicable to immunity determinations in such circumstances is problematic and should be altered.
We have Joshua Skinner to discuss the case.
