Description
PHILLIPS, Circuit Judge: Constance Fox, Wendy Morris and Lisa Morris (claimants) appeal the district court's dismissal of their several claims against Roy Custis and John Chandler (defendants), employees of Virginia's Department of Corrections, Division of Probation and Parole Services. Claimants charged that the negligent failure of the defendants to reincarcerate Morris Odell Mason, a dangerous parolee under their supervision, renders them responsible for Mason's subsequent criminal acts against claimants. In one count, each asserted a cause of action under Virginia tort law and in another, each premised liability on 42 U.S.C. Γ§ 1983. In dismissing both claims, the district court held that the defendants were absolutely immune under state law to liability on the state tort claims and that the Γ§ 1983 count failed to state a claim for which relief could be granted.
