Henley v. Millsap

2 Citing cases

  1. Graham v. Luke

    No. 23-10396 (11th Cir. Dec. 14, 2023)

    It need only be "reasonable to conclude from the totality of the circumstances that a crime was committed." Henley v. Millsap, No. 21-12231, 2022 WL 3654846, at *2 (11th Cir. Aug. 25, 2022) "Arguable probable cause," not surprisingly, is an even lower threshold. Arguable probable cause exists if "a reasonable officer, looking at the entire legal landscape at the time of the arrests, could have interpreted the law as permitting the arrests."

  2. Cooper v. Lister

    Civil Action 1:21-cv-00324-C (S.D. Ala. Jan. 13, 2023)

    Even where an issue of fact exists as to whether arresting officers had "arguable probable cause" for the arrest, qualified immunity may still be established if the plaintiff fails to show that 21 the alleged conduct of the officer violated "clearly established law" under the facts of the case. See Henley v. Millsap, No. 21-12231, 2022 WL 3654846 (11th Cir. Aug. 25, 2022). "Clearly established means that, at the time of the officer's conduct, the law was sufficiently clear that every reasonable official would understand that what he is doing is unlawful." Helm v. Rainbow City, Alabama, 989 F.3d 1265, 1272 (11th Cir. 2021) (quoting Wesby, 138 S.Ct. at 589) (internal quotations omitted).
