| Question presented | 1. Whether Officer Jonathan Granado’s use of deadly force on September 3, 2021 violated the Fourth Amendment when, after a high-speed chase, Estevan Ramirez emerged from the vehicle with gun in hand, refused an order to “get on the ground,” physically resisted an officer’s attempt to arrest, and attempted to escape towards the darkness of a residential neighborhood with gun still in hand. a. Did the panel correctly set forth the elements of an excessive force claim? b. Did the panel invert the qualified immunity analysis by shifting the burden from Ramirez to Officer Granado? c. Does the panel’s approach to qualified immunity force officers “to play roulette with their own existence”? 2. Whether any court other than the Supreme Court can clearly establish the law for purposes of qualified immunity, and if so, whether the panel majority correctly identified the clearly established law applicable to this case. 3. Whether this Court should resolve the controversies regarding qualified imm. | 1. Whether the District’s ban on firearm magazines capable of holding “more than 10 rounds of ammunition” violates the Second Amendment, either facially or as applied, and, if so, which of appellant’s convictions should be reversed as a result of that constitutional infirmity? 2. Whether the District’s licensing and registration requirements violate the Second Amendment? | Whether the Second Amendment protects the right of the people to possess these ubiquitous arms. |
| Summary | This case concerns whether Officer Jonathan Granado is liable under the Fourth Amendment for using deadly force against Estevan Ramirez after a vehicle pursuit and confrontation in which Ramirez allegedly had a gun. Granado asks the Supreme Court to review the Fifth Circuit’s denial of qualified immunity and its analysis of excessive force and clearly established law. | Gator’s Custom Guns and Walter Wentz ask the Supreme Court to review Washington’s restrictions on ammunition magazines that can hold more than ten rounds. The case concerns whether those magazines are protected “Arms” under the Second Amendment. | This case challenges California’s ban on firearm magazines that hold more than 10 rounds of ammunition, including the law’s requirement that owners give up magazines they had lawfully acquired. The petitioners argue that these magazines are commonly owned for lawful purposes and therefore protected by the Second Amendment. |
