Description

This action is before this court on appeal from the United States District Court for the Central District of California. Appellant, Raymond Wilson, originally filed this civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. Â§ 1983 against Appellee, Detective John Whiteley of the City of Orange Police Department. On appeal, Wilson contends that the district court erred in granting defendants motion for summary judgment. The primary issue on appeal is whether Whiteley had probable cause to arrest Wilson on suspicion of loan-sharking. Wilson argues that Whiteleys receipt of a bribe negated probable cause. This court has jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. Â§ 1291 and Rule 4(a) of the Federal Rules of Appellate Procedure.
