How courts have described this case

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

• holding that a city attorney’s threats of ar- rest “were certainly inappropriate” but “a far cry from the type of conduct recognized as conscience-shocking”
• holding that city attorney’s unfulfilled threats of arrest “were certainly inappropriate” but “a far cry from the type of conduct recognized as conscience- shocking”
• explaining that city attorney’s threat to arrest the plaintiff for violating a municipal ordinance was “a far cry from the type of conduct recognized as conscience-shocking”
• affirming denial of preliminary injunction and explaining that city at- torney’s threat to arrest plaintiff for violating ordinance did not shock the conscience
• finding stop work order “could not have deprived” plaintiff of property because plaintiff did not stop work in response
• rejecting procedural-due-process claim resting on argument that city-issued notices did not comply with requirements of state law; “[T]here is no constitutional procedural due process right to state-mandated procedures.”
