Description
We took this case en banc to clarify the law regarding whether, under Heck v. Humphrey, 512 U.S. 477 (1994), a § 1983 action for excessive force is necessarily barred by a plaintiffs conviction under California Penal Code § 148(a)(1) for willfully resisting, delaying, or obstructing a peace officer in the performance of his duties. We also take this occasion to bring our circuit into line with the others with respect to the definition of "deadly force."
