Question Presented (from Petition)
1. Did the First Circuit depart from this Court's qualified immunity precedent by defining clearly established law at a high level of generality and failing to consider the particular facts of the case?
2. Did the First Circuit disrupt the careful balance struck by this Court's formulation of qualified immunity when it denied Officers Morse and Gray qualified immunity notwithstanding the absence of clearly established law as to the lawful bounds of the knock and talk exception to the warrant requirement?
