JOHN DOE V. HENNEPIN HEALTHCARE SYSTEM, INC.
— STAFF
John Doe believes that a psychiatrist deliberately disregarded his medical needs during a mental-health crisis in jail. The complaint does not plausibly allege deliberate indifference, however, so we reverse the order denying qualified immunity.
8th Cir. · reversed
