U.S. Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit

Williams v. Crane

September 4, 2026

Summary

The Tenth Circuit affirmed the district court’s dismissal of the plaintiff’s §1983 action, holding that Younger abstention barred the equitable claims, Eleventh Amendment and quasi‑judicial immunity barred the claims against the judge and guardian ad litem, and the plaintiff failed to state a claim against private defendants under §1983.
