## Opinion text

DENNIS, Circuit Judge,
concurring in the judgment:
I respectfully concur in the judgment. The majority reached the right result in granting qualified immunity to all defendants. I disagree with the majority in that the defendants did violate the Fourth and Fourteenth Amendment rights in several respects as the plaintiff alleges, but I agree with the majority in granting of qualified immunity to all defendants, because those rights were not clearly established at the time of the violations.
