MEMORANDUM DECISION AND ORDER I. INTRODUCTION Presently set for trial in this Section 1983 and diversity action are Plaintiff Mark Hogan’s negligence claim against Defendant Frank Rose and Plaintiff’s trespass and false arrest claims against Defendant Wilbur Stanford, Jr. (See Dkt. Nos. 116, 120 (summary judgment orders)).
