Britt v. Grocers Supply Co.

How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• concluding that where the plaintiff did not point to an “official” policy for failure to discipline that he still met his burden by showing municipality had “widespread practices” of failing to discipline (quotation omitted)
• finding that law enforcement officers’ use of excessive force in accordance with their training established a Monell claim for failure to train
• denying summary judgment on Monell failure-to-train claim for excessive force where plaintiff presented evidence that the impermissible force used was in accordance with the officers’ training
• finding the fourth element “easily satisfied” because “a reasonable juror could find that, had Denver implemented a different training policy on the use of force, Plaintiffs would not have been subjected to the amount [of] force used in this case”
