HEYBURN, District Judge.
Plaintiffs-Appellees, the Flatford family, brought this civil rights action under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 alleging that city officials evicted them from their apartment without procedural due process guaranteed under the Fourteenth Amendment and in violation of their Fourth Amendment right against unreasonable seizures. Defendants-Appellants, including several city police officers and a city building inspector, appeal the district court’s order denying their motions for summary judgment on the basis of qualified immunity. 794 F.Supp. 227.
