Eighth Circuit: Patrick A. Dadd v. Anoka County

Prisons, S1983

Deliberate indifference suit states a claim where arresting officers and jail personnel were told of recent dental surgery but withheld pain relievers.  There is no implicit passage-of-time requirment for deliberate indifference claims.

As the timing-based assertion of qualified immunity was nonfrivolous, the other arguments won't be sanctioned.
