Description
Ronald Ting appeals the district courts judgment (1) in favor of Special Agent James Burns following a jury trial on Tings Bivens claims, and (2) in favor of the United States following a bench trial on Tings Federal Tort Claims Act ("FTCA") claim. Burns shot Ting during a 1984 drug raid of Tings apartment, and Ting suffered injuries that left him a quadriplegic. According to Burns and other FBI agents, Burns was attempting to arrest Ting, who broke free and was shot as he lunged toward an area of the apartment that the agents had not yet inspected for weapons. Ting challenges the district courts exclusion of evidence that a subsequent search of that area turned up no weapons. Ting also challenges the sufficiency of the evidence supporting the verdicts, certain of the district courts jury instructions, and the district courts exclusion of evidence that supported a negligence theory for Tings FTCA claim. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291. Finding Tings appeals to be without merit, we affirm the judgment of the district court.
