Description
Chris Rowenhorst appeals the district courts dismissal of his action against Internal Revenue Service Officers Viola Mitchell and Tracy L. Brown. Rowenhorst alleged that the defendants violated his fourth, fifth, and fourteenth amendment rights by falsely reporting that he assaulted them following his refusal to make payment for delinquent federal income taxes. The district court dismissed the action on the grounds that Rowenhorst failed to allege either a violation of a clearly established constitutional right, or a claim sufficient to overcome the defendants qualified immunity defense. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.
