How courts have described this case

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

  • remanding the case to the district court, in part, because municipal liability had been imposed without the district court identifying a final policymaker
  • citing, inter alia, Garcia v. Salt Lake Cnty., 768 F.2d 303 (10th Cir. 1985)
  • “Where the district court’s intent to enter a partial final judgment under Rule 54 (b) is clear, the order is considered appealable.”
  • municipal liability cannot be sustained where there has been no violation of the plaintiff’s constitutional rights
  • appeal filed two years after 54(b) certification was untimely where certification was not challenged
  • “We do not suggest that municipal liability may be sustained where there has been no violation of the plaintiff’s constitutional rights as a result of action by the municipality’s officials or employees.”
