Appellees brought suit against twenty-eight individual
defendants and the County of Los Angeles under 42 U.S.C.
§ 1983 and California Civil Code § 52.1. Appellees Flores,
Sanchez, Nunez, and Trinidad contended that the cell
extractions violated their right to be free from cruel and
unusual punishment under the Eighth and Fourteenth
Amendments. Appellee Rodriguez, who at the time of the
cell extraction was a pre-trial detainee, brought suit under the
Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment. See City
of Revere v. Mass. Gen. Hosp., 463 U.S. 239, 244 (1983). 1. Jury Instructions
