Cindy Laine Franklin v. Chris Curry
Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit

1Opinion of the Court
PER CURIAM)
This case arises from Cindy Laine Franklin’s allegation that Michael Keith Gay, a corrections officer at the Shelby County Jail, sexually assaulted her, and Franklin’s ensuing lawsuit against Gay and various other officers at the jail. The officers other than Gay (Appellants or the Supervisory Defendants) moved for dismissal on the basis of qualified immunity.

Upon review, we hold that Franklin has failed to plead a constitutional violation and that Appellants are therefore entitled to qualified immunity.
