Police Misconduct: A Practitioners Guide to Section 1983 combines 18 substantive chapters covering the law with 12 on practice. There are chapters on the Fourth, Fourteenth and First Amendments, on Qualified Immunity, Municipal Liability, Procedural Defenses and Damages, digesting hundreds of cases in high frequency and high exposure areas. The book discusses the latest Supreme Court cases, covers best practices, and offers practice chapters on the complaint, discovery and evidence, dispositive motions, trial and post-trial, including attorney s fees--all with checklists, practice tips, and dozens of forms.
The first 18 chapters cover the substantive law, both high frequency and high exposure cases: Fourth Amendment searches, arrests, deadly and non-deadly force; Fourteenth Amendment duty of protection; First Amendment; individual, supervisory and municipal liability; qualified immunity; claims against state and federal officials; procedural defenses; damages; and common law claims and defenses to bring along with § 1983 claims. The substantive law chapters also feature hot topics, the latest thinking from police organizations, and Circuit-by-Circuit comparisons on important issues. The 12 practice chapters of Police Misconduct: A Practitioner's Guide to Section 1983 begin with investigation, representation and initial pleadings; discovery in depth regarding plaintiffs and defendants; motions practice, including dispositive motions and motions in limine; and dozens of evidentiary issues in alphabetical order for quick reference. Using hypothetical fact patterns, chapters cover trial from the plaintiff s and the defense perspectives, with tips on jury selection, opening and closing, order of witnesses and pattern examinations, how to handle the qualified immunity issue at trial, jury instructions, special verdict forms, post-trial motions, and attorney s fee awards for prevailing plaintiffs. With free annual supplements, this is the only book you will need for a successful police misconduct practice.
