Does Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act require law enforcement officers to provide accommodations to an armed, violent, and mentally ill suspect in the course of bringing the suspect into custody?
QUESTIONS PRESENTED 1. Does Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act require law enforcement officers to provide accommodations to an armed, violent, and mentally ill suspect in the course of bringing the suspect into custody? (This Court granted certiorari on this question in City and County of San Francisco v. Sheehan, Docket No. 13-1412, but did not resolve it.) 2. Under the Fourth Amendment “totality of the circumstances” analysis for assessing the reasonableness of force used against a suspect who attacks law enforcement officers, must a court take into account allegedly unreasonable police conduct that took place before the use of force, but foreseeably created the need to use that force? 3. Under the Fourth Amendment’s analysis for use of force, is alaw enforcement officer’s interest in using deadly force against a suspect threatening an officer’s life diminished if the assailant is mentally ill?
