Shelton v. Gravelet-Blondin

(1) Whether it is " or should be " clearly established that police officers per se violate the United States Constitution when they use nontrivial force in the context of passive resistance, regardless of the surrounding circumstances; and (2) whether the Ninth Circuit"s unique treatment of tasers " "intermediate force as a matter of law," which "must" be justified by the government interest involved " is inconsistent with this Court"s holdings in Graham v. Connor, Saucier v. Katz, and Scott v. Harris, or in the best interest of society.
