He recorded the transaction, including copying Burns\u0027 ID and photographing the items. Subsequently, David and Christina Hill contacted Chiaverini, claiming the jewelry was stolen from them. Chiaverini advised them to report to the police but denied buying their described items. After multiple calls, Chiaverini ended the conversation. Both parties contacted the police. Chiaverini expressed his suspicion about holding stolen property and requested police, not the Hills, to visit. When the police arrived, Chiaverini cooperated, providing information and photographs of the jewelry.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EThe situation escalated when Chiaverini received a conflicting \u0022hold letter\u0022 from the police, instructing him to keep the items as evidence but also to release them to the Hills. Chiaverini refused to release the items, citing legal concerns and advice from his counsel. His confrontation with Police Chief Weitzel revealed Chiaverini\u0027s lack of a precious-metal-dealer license, prompting a new investigation angle. Officer Steward updated the police report to include Chiaverini\u0027s suspicion about the stolen nature of the items, which Chiaverini disputed. Based on these developments, warrants were issued for Chiaverini\u0027s arrest and the search of his store, leading to his temporary detention. Although a court later dismissed the criminal case against Chiaverini, he filed a complaint against the officers and the city, alleging various legal violations. The district court granted summary judgment to the officers, citing probable cause for Chiaverini\u0027s arrest and dismissing his claims. The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit affirmed.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003E\u00a0\u003C\/p\u003E\n","question":"\u003Cp\u003EMay a Fourth Amendment malicious-prosecution claim proceed as to a baseless criminal charge so long as other charges brought alongside the baseless charge are supported by probable cause?\u003C\/p\u003E\n","conclusion":"\u003Cp\u003EPursuant to the Fourth Amendment and traditional common-law practice, the presence of probable cause for one charge in a criminal proceeding does not categorically defeat a Fourth Amendment malicious-prosecution claim relating to another, baseless charge. Justice Elena Kagan authored the 6-3 majority opinion of the Court.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EFirst, the Court considered the Fourth Amendment issue. A Fourth Amendment malicious prosecution claim can proceed even when a baseless charge is accompanied by a valid charge. This is because a pretrial detention must be based on probable cause, and if an invalid charge causes a detention to start or continue, the Fourth Amendment is violated, even if a valid charge also exists.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003ESecond, looking at the common law tort of malicious prosecution, which was analogous to Fourth Amendment malicious prosecution claims when \u00a71983 was enacted. Historical evidence shows that courts assessed probable cause on a charge-by-charge basis, and a plaintiff could bring a malicious prosecution claim for groundless charges even if they were coupled with well-founded ones.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EBased on these two lines of reasoning, the Court rejected the Sixth Circuit\u0027s categorical rule that barred Fourth Amendment malicious prosecution claims if any charge was valid and concluded that courts should evaluate such suits on a charge-by-charge basis.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EJustice Clarence Thomas authored a dissenting opinion, in which Justice Samuel Alito joined, reiterating Justice Alito\u2019s prior opinion (in which Justice Thomas joined) that a \u201cmalicious prosecution claim cannot be based on the Fourth Amendment.\u201d\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EJustice Neil Gorsuch authored a dissenting opinion, arguing that nothing in the language of the Fourth Amendment supports a malicious prosecution claim.\u003C\/p\u003E\n","advocates":[{"advocate":{"ID":63611,"name":"Easha Anand","href":"https:\/\/api.oyez.org\/people\/easha_anand","view_count":0,"last_name":"Anand","roles":null,"thumbnail":null,"length_of_service":0,"identifier":"easha_anand"},"advocate_description":"for the Petitioners","href":"https:\/\/api.oyez.org\/case_advocate\/case_advocate\/23579"},{"advocate":{"ID":63186,"name":"Vivek Suri","href":"https:\/\/api.oyez.org\/people\/vivek_suri","view_count":0,"last_name":"Suri","roles":null,"thumbnail":null,"length_of_service":0,"identifier":"vivek_suri"},"advocate_description":"for the United States, as amicus curiae, supporting vacatur","href":"https:\/\/api.oyez.org\/case_advocate\/case_advocate\/23580"},{"advocate":{"ID":63671,"name":"Megan M.
