Question Presented (OCR Extract)
QUESTION PRESENTED Did the Sixth Circuit improperly deny qualified immunity to prison officials based on their response to the unprecedented COVID-19 global pandemic by defining the relevant law at too high level of generality and identifying no precedent recognizing a constitutional right under similar circumstances that would have put reasonable officials on notice that their conduct may violate the Constitution given the novel challenge of the pandemic?
