Li Min v. Morris
District Court, E.D. Pennsylvania · 2010-08-26 · cited 5×
The case involved plaintiff Li Min suing the City of Philadelphia and health inspector Clarence Morris over claims of assault, battery, §1983 civil rights violations, violation of the Pennsylvania constitution, and conversion stemming from an alleged incident at her restaurant. The court dismissed all claims against Morris for lack of service and granted the City's motion for summary judgment on the remaining claims against it. Core reasoning included the failure to establish that Morris acted under color of state law or that any municipal policy or custom under Monell caused a constitutional violation, stipulation to dismissal of certain claims, and the bar of the conversion claim by the Political Subdivision Tort Claims Act's governmental immunity provisions.
