We now remand this case to the United States District Court for the Middle District of Georgia for further proceedings consistent with our July 16, 2010 opinion, and specifically for entry of judgment in favor of the Defendants on all claims except for the retaliatory prosecution claim against Paulk in Count 7 of Rehberg’s complaint.

REMANDED.
