Is there any case law where a plaintiff waives his excessive force claim?
MultiRegion, United States of America
The following excerpt is from Ortiz v. City of N.Y., 13-4884-cv (2nd Cir. 2016):
1. Ortiz has waived his excessive force claim because he raises no arguments concerning it in his appellate brief. See LoSacco v. City of Middletown, 71 F.3d 88, 92-93 (2d Cir. 1995) (issues not raised in appellate brief are considered abandoned).
