Outcome
The Fifth Circuit affirmed in part and reversed in part the district court's denial of qualified immunity to DFPS employees. The court found that while the employees violated clearly established law regarding Fourth Amendment protections against warrantless removal, qualified immunity applied to some defendants based on factual disputes and the specifics of exigent circumstances analysis.
