David, I've already read the opinion last week.
That's because the 4th had not ruled on this before.
Now, all LEOS are put on noticed. Behave - or else.
Yes, but then all the next cop has to do is change the circumstances slightly, and he gets off, too.
"in Baxter v. Bracey, the Court let stand a Sixth Circuit decision which said that a prior case holding it unconstitutional for police to deploy a canine against a suspect who had surrendered by lying on the ground did not “clearly establish” that it was unlawful for police to deploy a canine against a suspect who had surrendered by sitting on the ground with his hands up."
Is it legal in a house?
Is it legal with a mouse?
Is it legal In a box?
Is it legal with a fox?
