Rush v. Nicoletti, No. 21-1298 (3d Cir.)
Officer Richard Nicoletti shot Jeffery Dennis three times through the driver’s side window of his stopped car, killing him. Mr. Dennis was unarmed. The District Court denied Officer Nicoletti qualified immunity based upon twenty years worth of law clearly establishing that his conduct violated the Constitution. All Rise Trial & Appellate is defending the denial of qualified immunity on appeal, in support of justice for Mr. Dennis’s loved ones.
Update: The Third Circuit has affirmed the denial of qualified immunity, and the case is remanded for trial.
