Court does not have jurisdiction over cross-appeal in review of denial of qualified immunity, since deciding whether the police dog bites should be considered singly or as a group is not inextricably intertwined with the question of immunity for (non-dog) officers.
Qualified immunity, as it was objectively reasonable to allow the dog to continue biting the suspect until the suspect was fully handcuffed.
