David Lynch v. Leonard R. Davis

U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit
David Lynch v. Leonard R. Davis, 111 F. App'x 851 (8th Cir. 2004)

David Lynch v. Leonard R. Davis

Opinion

PER CURIAM.

David Lynch (Lynch) appeals the district court’s 1 adverse grant of summary judgment in his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action involving a high-speed chase. Upon de novo review, see Lawyer v. City of Council Bluffs, 361 F.3d 1099, 1103 (8th Cir. 2004), we conclude the officer-defendants’ conduct was objectively reasonable under the circumstances, and thus the defendants did not violate Lynch’s Fourth Amendment right to be free from unreasonable *852 searches and seizures, see Cole v. Bone, 993 F.2d 1328,1332-34 (8th Cir. 1993).

Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.

1

. The Honorable Linda R. Reade, United States District Judge for the Northern District of Iowa.
