Description
Appellant William T. Gray, III, appeals the District Courts dismissal of his pro se lawsuit against Theisha Poole, a District of Columbia social worker. Poole investigated and helped initiate a child neglect action filed in the District of Columbia Superior Court ("Superior Court"), which ultimately resulted in the termination of Grays custody of his younger brother. Gray filed a complaint in District Court, claiming that Poole and the two attorneys responsible for the child neglect action had violated 42 U.S.C. s 1983 in investigating, initiating, and prosecuting the matter. The District Court dismissed Grays action, holding that all three defendants were protected by absolute immunity. This court summarily affirmed the dismissal as to the two attorneys. See Gray v. Poole, 243 F.3d 572 (D.C. Cir. 2001) ("Gray I"). The only remaining issue before this court is whether Poole is protected by absolute or qualified immunity.
