March 12, 2019 Opinion or Order Filing 144 MEMORANDUM AND ORDER. A. Exigent Circumstances Burden: The general rule in civil cases--predicated on sound constitutional policy--should place the burden on police officers to prove, by a preponderance of the evidence, exigent circumstances justi fying a warrantless entry. Placing the burden of persuasion on the civilian plaintiff is a repeated injustice that should stop now. B. Malicious Prosecution: Plaintiff's malicious prosecution claim should be treated as if it was on the merits- i.e., the defendant was not guilty. An ambiguous state dismissal should be accepted as being based on non-guilt, in part because of the assumption of innocence before conviction. Ordered by Judge Jack B. Weinstein on 3/12/2019.
