Question Presented (OCR Extract)

QUESTION PRESENTED Did the Minnesota Supreme Court depart from this Court’s decisions in City of Tahlequah v. Bond, 142 S. Ct. 9 (2021) (per curiam), Rivas-Villegas v. Cortesluna, 142 8. Ct. 4 (2021) (per curiam), and many other qualified immunity cases by defining the relevant law at a high level of generality and holding that “less particularity is required to clearly establish what the constitution requires” when engaging in “routine conduct”?
