Question presented
- Did the Sixth Circuit err in denying qualified immunity to four police officers involved in a warrantless arrest and detention in the absence of clearly established law placing each officer on notice of the obligation to provide an arrestee with a prompt probable cause determination, and err in creating a rule that will have serious adverse effects for police agencies?
