Description

Order Plaintiff Wilson appeals pro se a district court order granting summary judgment to the defendants in this civil rights action filed under 42 U.S.C. § 1983. The case has been referred to a panel of the court pursuant to Rule 9(a). Rules of the Sixth Circuit. Upon examination, this panel unanimously agrees that oral argument is not needed. Fed. R. App. P. 34(a). Wilson is a resident of Cassopolis, Michigan. The defendants are the Village of Cassopolis; Frank Williams, the Chief of Police of the Village of Cassopolis sued in his official capacity; and Thomas Canny, a private Citizen. The background facts are set forth in the district court's opinion and will not be repeated herein. Suffice it to say that Wilson alleged that the defendants violated his constitutional rights when they falsely arrested and maliciously prosecuted him on an assault and battery charge. Specifically, he claimed that his arrest and prosecution were without probable cause and deprived him of his constitutional right to due process of law. He also alleged that he was deprived of his right to counsel. A jury eventually acquitted Wilson of the charge. Wilson sought only monetary relief. He also asserted pendent state law claims of false arrest and malicious prosecution.
