Description
FOR PUBLICATION Argued and Submitted November 3, 1999--Pasadena, California As amended August 2, 2000 Opinion by Judge Noonan; Concurrence by Judge O'Scannlain OPINION Jed Blair appeals the summary judgment entered against him by the district court in his action against the City of Pomona (the City) for violation of 42 U.S.C. S 1983 after he had alerted the defendant to abuses in its police department, of which he was a member. We affirm the judgment against Blair on his claim of negligent supervision by the City. As to his other claims, however, we hold that there were material facts in dispute as to whether the defendant had a custom of harassing police whistleblowers. We further hold that Blair stated claims cognizable under California law for interference with his civil rights and the intentional infliction of emotional distress. We accordingly reverse the judgment of the district court and remand for proceedings consistent with this opinion.
