Abstract

In Supreme Court case Piper v. Lockwood, there are two questions before the court. First, whether a court, in determining the reasonableness of a use of force by an officer during an arrest, should consider only the facts and circumstances at the moment of the use of force or should instead also consider the relevant facts and circumstances leading up to the moment of the use of force. And second, whether individuals, including those with no formal affiliation to the press, have a First Amendment right to record police officers acting in public.
