Question presented

I. Whether the denial of Mr. Madero’s appeal to Respondent’s motion for summary judgment was in error, under this Court’s ruling in Tolan, as there was a genuine dispute of material fact and the evidence of the nonmovant was not believed. II. Whether the denial of Mr. Madero’s appeal regarding lack of probable cause at the time of his arrest violates the Fourth Amendment, and is contradictory to this Court’s findings in Beck and Llaguna.
