ERRATA SHEET

The opinion of this Court, issued on February 23, 2010, is

amended as follows:

On page 29, at the beginning of line 1, the following

language should be inserted:

In addition to there being no clear notice from the

Supreme Court opinions, we have found no cases in this

circuit or elsewhere sufficiently similar to have

alerted the defendants to the illegality of their

conduct. See Anderson, 483 U.S. at 640 (noting that

"in the light of pre-existing law the unlawfulness must

be apparent").

On page 29, at line 1, "No First Circuit case had clearly

established" should be substituted for "Nor had any First Circuit

case held".
