Record returned to the U.S.C.A. 8th Circuit (1 box).
2021-06-28
The Court expresses no view as to whether the officers used unconstitutionally excessive force or, if they did, whether Gilbert's right to be free of such force in these circumstances was clearly established at the time of his death. The Court instead grants the petition for certiorari, vacates the judgment of the United States Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit, and remands the case to give the court the opportunity to employ an inquiry that clearly attends to the facts and circumstances in answering those questions in the first instance. <a href = 'https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/20pdf/20-391_2c83.pdf'>Opinion</a> per curiam.
