  • First Circuit: Summary judgment affirmed for police trooper on Fourth Amendment claim arising out of trooper seizing a photographer’s camera and digital photos of car accident scene where trooper believed photographer was illegally impersonating rescue personnel (he was driving a repurposed ambulance), where there was no clearly-established law in August 2010 that precluded a reasonable trooper from believing the exigent-circumstances exception applied
  • First Circuit: The court reversed district court’s summary judgment decision that Jones Act plaintiff’s maintenance and cure benefits terminated on a different date than the one argued by defendant because the court reached its own conclusion without giving plaintiff an opportunity to present contrary evidence  (the court also decided two other Jones Act issues)
