Description
BAIRD, District Judge: In this 28 U.S.C. § 1983 case, the district court denied appellants' motion for summary judgment, finding that appellants' qualified immunity argument was without merit. Appellee, a prisoner in the custody of the California Department of Corrections at the California Medical Facility (""the Facility"") in Vacaville, California, brought suit after he suffered second-degree burns on his arm when an oven door fell off its hinges in the Facility's family visiting unit. Appellants are officials at the Facility responsible for the family visiting unit. Appellants argue that the district court erred in denying them qualified immunity. We agree.
