Plaintiffs filed this action alleging that four Walnut Creek police officers used excessive force and acted negligently when they fatally shot Anthony Banta. See Complaint (dkt. 1). Defendants have moved for summary judgment. See Motion (dkt. 64).

For the reasons stated at the hearing, the Court GRANTS summary judgment in favor of Officers Connors and Griffith. See Minute Entry (dkt. 76). The Court DENIES summary judgment to Officers Sugrue and Ezard given factual disputes regarding their actions and an insufficient factual basis to find that those two officers were entitled to qualified immunity.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
