1Opinion of the Court
KRUPANSKY, Senior Circuit Judge.
Robert Jones, Jr. (Jones) has appealed a jury verdict in favor of the defendants, the named police officers, upon which the district court entered judgment for the defendants in this civil rights suit initiated pursuant to 42 U.S.C. section 1983. Jones challenged the jury’s consideration of Peggy Coffey’s consent, if any, to a warrant-less entry into her residence to apprehend him, the district court’s instruction on that issue, and the sufficiency of the evidence to support the jury’s verdict.
The instant appeal is a spin-off from this court’s previous decision…
