CLEARLY ESTABLISHED ENOUGH: THE FOURTH CIRCUIT'S NEW APPROACH TO QUALIFIED IMMUNITY IN BELLOTTE V. ED WARDS.
- Authors
SIEGEL, DANIEL K.
- Abstract
The article focuses on the Fourth Circuit's new qualified immunity analysis in the case of Bellotte v. Edwards. It states that the qualified immunity doctrine helps to protect government officers from civil liability as they violate the constitutional and statutory rights of an individual in the U.S. It mentions the move of detective Tracy Edwards to secure a search warrant for Sam Bellotte and his wife Tametta, and organized the special operations team for the execution of the search warrant.
