WILLIAMS, District Judge.

Billy K. Evans brought this action against the defendant, Richard F. Sturgill, for damages allegedly suffered when plaintiff Evans was arrested on December 8, 1973 in Ann Arbor, Michigan and detained in a local jail for about three days. After depositions were taken in the case, the defendant moved for summary judgment on several grounds and the motion was taken under advisement by this court.
