Question Presented (from Petition)
(1) Whether a jail intake officer with no responsibility
for classification or cell assignments nevertheless
had a clearly established constitutional duty to
inform others that a compliant inmate had been
arrested for an allegedly racially motivated
assault so that inmate's housing assignment could
be determined by a separate department.
(2) Assuming this constitutional duty was clearly
established, whether the Eleventh Circuit's
direction to racially segregate is procedurally
defective because it did not provide procedural
guideposts.
Question Presented (AI Summary)
