Heading: is keith entitled to the defense of qualified immunity via beth richmond and was he released from liability by the settlement agreement?

Text: ¶ 29. The Williamsons contend that Keith is not entitled to qualified immunity through hearing officer Beth Richmond, as he asserted in his Memorandum in Support of Motion for Summary Judgment. The trial court stated in its Opinion and Order on Motion for Summary Judgment that Keith was acting as an agent for the Madison County School District and therefore is entitled to immunity. The Williamsons also claim that Keith was not released from liability by the Settlement Agreement between the Williamsons and the school district, as was determined by the trial court. ¶ 30. Analysis of whether the trial court's determination regarding Keith's immunity and whether he was released from liability from the settlement agreement was correct is unnecessary as it has been determined that the trial court's granting of summary judgment regarding the Williamsons' claims of abuse of process and invasion of privacy against Keith was proper.
