Before LOKEN, HANSEN, and MORRIS SHEPPARD ARNOLD, Circuit Judges.
                         ________________

PER CURIAM.

       The plaintiffs, Stephanie Doran and her children, appeal the district court's1 order
granting partial summary judgment to the defendants in this 42 U.S.C. § 1983 lawsuit.
The defendants are the Lancaster County Attorney and officers of the Nebraska State
Patrol. In their complaint, the Dorans alleged that the defendants violated their
constitutional rights by obtaining a search warrant through material false statements and
omissions. The Dorans also alleged that the defendants used excessive force when
executing the warrant at their home in Lincoln, Nebraska. In its summary judgment
order, the district court granted qualified immunity to the defendants on the search
warrant application issue but denied qualified immunity on the excessive force claim.



      On appeal, the Dorans assert that material issues of fact about whether the
defendants made material false statements or omissions in the warrant application
preclude summary judgment. Having carefully reviewed the record and the parties'
briefs, we conclude that the district court properly granted partial summary judgment
on this issue. The undisputed facts demonstrate that the defendants were at most
negligent and otherwise acted in an objectively reasonable manner in light of the facts
known to them. See Waddell v. Forney, 

, 890 (8th Cir. 1997) (noting we

      The Honorable Richard G. Kopf, United States District Judge for the District
of Nebraska.
                                            2
consider "whether, in view of the facts that the district court deemed sufficiently
supported for summary judgment purposes, the individual defendants' conduct was
objectively reasonable given their knowledge and the clearly established law").

      Accordingly, we affirm the district court's partial grant of summary judgment.
See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
