Hill v. Dekalb Regional Youth Detention Center
Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit
Decided December 27, 1994No. Nos. 92-8854, 92-9318PublishedCited by 69 opinions
1Opinion of the Court
BIRCH, Circuit Judge:
These consolidated interlocutory appeals arise from denials of summary judgment where governmental employees claimed qualified immunity and the county maintained no responsibility in connection with the sexual assault upon a minor while in the custody of a youth detention center. The district court determined that the individual governmental defendants were ineligible for qualified immunity, and that the county incurred liability through implementation of its policies and procedures. We REVERSE and REMAND.
