## Opinion text

MURPHY, Circuit Judge,
concurring in part and dissenting in part.
I concur in the majority’s disposition of the claims for substantive due process and against the City of West Branch, but I would affirm the judgment of the district court because I think Police Chief Dan Knight is entitled to qualified immunity.
