Description
Jonathan Acosta, a minor, and his father Edward C. Acosta appeal the district court's summary judgment for the Chino Unified School District (the "School District") and Vice Principal, Larry Gillespie ("Gillespie"), in their 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action, alleging that Jonathan's civil rights were violated when he was arrested and criminally prosecuted for striking a teacher in the arm. The School District and Gillespie cross-appeal the district court's denial of their request for attorneys' fees. We have jurisdiction over both the appeal and the cross-appeal under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We affirm.
