OPINION
_________________________
KETHLEDGE, Circuit Judge. Cory Jarvela was bitten by a police dog after leading an
officer on a high-speed chase and eventually fleeing on foot into a darkened, wooded area.
Jarvela later brought this suit against Deputy Richard Houk, the dog’s handler. The district court
denied summary judgment to Houk, holding that he had a constitutional duty to shout out a
warning to Jarvela before searching for him with the dog. We hold that Houk had no such duty,
and reverse. |

_________________________
LARSEN, Circuit Judge. Ronald Sharp’s parole officer found a gun while searching
Sharp’s home. After the district court denied his motion to suppress, a jury convicted Sharp of
possessing a firearm as a felon in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(1). Sharp appeals the denial of
his suppression motion. We AFFIRM. |
