Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit
Decided February 5, 1992No. 90-1099PublishedCited by 52 opinions
1Opinion of the Court
TACHA, Circuit Judge.
Defendant-appellant Daniel Baker appeals from an interlocutory order of the district court denying his motion to dismiss and motion for partial summary judgment. On appeal, Baker contends (1) that the district court incorrectly applied the “law of the case” doctrine and (2) that he is entitled to absolute immunity from civil liability for testimony he provided to the grand jury of El Paso County, Colorado and to the state trial judge in a preliminary hearing.
We have jurisdiction over an interlocutory decision denying absolute immunity under the “collateral order”…
