The following excerpt is from Barone v. Foley, 28 F.3d 104 (9th Cir. 1994):
3 Since we hold that no constitutional violation occurred, there can be no error in the district court's finding of qualified immunity. See Romero v. Kitsap County, 931 F.2d 624, 627 (9th Cir.1991) (officers have qualified immunity unless plaintiff shows, inter alia, violation of clearly established constitutional right).
