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 warrant issued by a neutral magistrate creates presumption that officers’ belief in probable cause was objectively reasonable
  • finding that “state [preliminary] hearing did not provide . . . a full and fair opportunity, for collateral estoppel purposes, to litigate the issue of probable cause” in part because the claimant had no access to police investigative file before hearing
  • “The right not to be arrested or prosecuted without probable cause has, of course, long been a clearly established constitutional right.”
