Question Presented (from Petition)

Did the Tenth Circuit misapply this Court's precedent, and wrongly reject Mr. Bosman's Fourth Amendment claim, when it dismissed the availability of an obvious and readily available alternative to the gunpoint seizure, without considering whether the police acted unreasonably in failing to recognize or pursue that alternative?
