Seventh Circuit: Jacob Saathoff v. Andre Davis

FRCP, S1983, Animal Law

No abuse of discretion in denial of sanctions or new trial where trial testimony of officer varied substantially from interrogatory, given vagueness of questions and the chance to respond at trial.

Where a police officer is called to a dogfight and shoots a dog that might or might not have been n top at the time, the standard is reasonable use of force, not inevitability of use of force.

Sufficient evidence.
