OPINION
KLEINFELD, Senior Circuit Judge:
Armstrong sued several police officers and the municipality that employed them. 1 His forty-three page second amended complaint is pro se and hard to understand, but the core of it is a § 1983 claim for violation of his Fourth Amendment rights in their searches and seizures and his arrest pursuant to warrants. The police officers moved to dismiss based on qualified immunity, their motion was denied in district court, and they have filed this interlocutory appeal pursuant to Mitchell v. Forsyth. 2 We reverse.
