On remand from the Supreme Court of the United States.
UPON DUE CONSIDERATION, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED, ADJUDGED, AND DECREED that the judgment of the district court be VACATED and the cause be REMANDED to the United States District Court for the Northern District of New York for further proceedings consistent with the opinion of the Supreme Court of the United States.
This case is before us on remand from the Supreme Court, which reversed our decision in McDonough v. Smith, 898 F.3d 259 (2d Cir. 2018), and remanded for further proceedings consistent with the Supreme Court's opinion. See McDonough v. Smith, 139 S.Ct. 2149, 204 L. Ed. 2d 506 (2019).
We now VACATE the judgment of the district court and REMAND for further proceedings consistent with the opinion of the Supreme Court.1
FootNotes
1. We express no view as to whether Smith has waived or forfeited the argument that absolute immunity bars McDonough's fabricated-evidence claim. See Brown v. City of New York, 862 F.3d 182, 187-88 (2d Cir. 2017).
