Pedro Ramos v. City of Chicago

How courts have described this case

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

• concluding that a plaintiff is unable to receive damages for time spent in cus- tody on a valid sentence
• explaining that handcuff use “to ensure officer safety in a Terry stop of brief duration . . . does not mean that law enforcement has carte blanche to handcuff routinely”
• “[A]ny presumption of damages is surely defeated in a case where all of the time served is ultimately credited toward an unrelated weapons violation.”
• civil plaintiff must show not only that deten- tion was based on false evidence but also that his “seizure would lack probable cause without that false evidence”
