SIM L. STANLEY v. STATE OF FLORIDA
How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- holding that we lack jurisdiction over a denial of summary judgment based on qualified immunity where “all we are left with is the factual review of what happened”
- explaining that to defeat qualified immunity, the plaintiff must establish that the defendant violated a “clearly established” constitutional right
- “To be sure, the presence of a factual dispute on appeal does not automatically foreclose interlocutory review; rather, jurisdictional issues arise when the only question before an appellate court is one of pure fact.”
