Ashley v. City of New York

Court does not reach issue of whether favorable termination requirement is more capacious for fabrication of evidence claim than for malicious prosecution because finds favorable termination under latter standard; although termination for facial insufficiency generally do not qualify as favorable, that determination is context-specific; here disposition was noted as facial insufficiency but circumstances showed that case was dismissed because officers found marijuana in an apartment where others were present, photos showed plaintiff arrived at apartment only after police, and it was disputed that he lived there.
