Description
MOORE, Circuit Judge. Sheryl Howard filed suit under state and federal law against several parties including Officer Jan Dickerson arising from
her arrest and detention for leaving the scene of an accident and for careless driving. Officer Dickerson appeals the denial
of portions of his motions for dismissal and summary judgment. Specifically, he contends Ms. Howard cannot maintain a 42 U.S.C.
1983 claim against him for deliberate indifference to known medical needs pursuant to the Fourteenth Amendment. He also argues
she cannot pursue a 1983 claim based on the Fourth Amendment because he did not violate clearly established law by arresting
Ms. Howard in her home without a warrant and because she pled no contest to a charge stemming from the arrest.
