37 F.4th 1182

Colson v. City of Alcoa, Tenn.

Submitted by Re'Neisha Stevenson on Thu, 10/27/2022 - 13:22

Claim for failing to provide medical care for knee injury suffered during arrest by first taking plaintiff to jail rather than hospital and relying on jail nurse’s opinion that injury did not require further attention was governed by 14th Amendment’s due process clause, not 4th Amendment; claim was based on period after arrest, but before finding of probable cause.
