TODD SIMPSON, in their individual capacities, ROBERT C. SASSER, in their individual capacities, Defendants - Appellees. Case: 14-14456 Date Filed: 03/18/2015 Page: 2 of 2 ________________________ Appeal from the United States District Court for the Southern District of Georgia ________________________ (March 18, 2015) Before HULL, ROSENBAUM and JILL PRYOR, Circuit Judges. PER CURIAM: We affirm the district court’s grant of qualified immunity for the reasons articulated in its summary judgment order, Small v. Glynn Cnty., Ga., No. CV 212- 115,
2014 WL 4928877(S.D. Ga. Sept. 30, 2014). We note that the district court expressly took care to construe the facts in the light most favorable to the plaintiffs. Accordingly, we agree with the district court that an “objectively reasonable official standing in the [officers’] place” would not have been on notice that using deadly force against Ms. Small “would be clearly unlawful given the circumstances.” See Pace v. Capobianco,
283 F.3d 1275, 1282 (11th Cir. 2002). AFFIRMED. 2
