Annotate this Case
US Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit - 999 F.2d 548 (10th Cir. 1993) July 1, 1993

Before McKAY, Chief Judge, and SETH and MOORE, Circuit Judges.

ORDER AND JUDGMENT1 

McKAY, Chief Judge.


This appeal arises from the denial of the Appellants' motion for qualified immunity.2  Appellants assert that they were entitled to a grant of qualified immunity under the undisputed facts of this case. In addition, they assert the trial court applied an overly burdensome and incorrect standard when it denied Appellants qualified immunity.

A review of the record before us indicates that the district court considered separately Appellants' motion for summary judgment and for qualified immunity. The inappropriate standard which Appellants complain of was applied, if at all, only in that section of the opinion denying Appellants' motion for summary judgment. The denial of Appellants' motion for summary judgment is not properly before us.

The record indicates that the trial court applied an appropriate standard when considering the qualified immunity issue, and we are satisfied with the trial court's analysis in this case. Accordingly, the judgment is affirmed for the reasons given by the trial court.

AFFIRMED.

Appellants filed a motion for summary judgment and for qualified immunity. Both motions were denied. The motion for qualified immunity is before us on an interlocutory appeal pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291 (1988)
