“Lizardo vs Denny Inc.”<\/p>\n
Two corrections officers were employed as security personnel at Denny\u2019s Restaurant.
After a member of an Asian American group complained about the delay in being
seated, one of the officers escorted the complaining Asian American out of the
restaurant and threatened to arrest him for disorderly conduct. A series of fights erupted
outside the restaurant between the Asian American group and other restaurant patrons.
A group of African Americans also waiting to be seated went outside to observe the
argument. One of them went back inside and while describing the outside commotion,
used an expletive. After the restaurant manager warned the African American group to
be quiet or leave, the officers escorted them out of the restaurant. Members of both
groups sued Denny\u2019s Restaurant and the security personnel for excluding them from the
restaurant because of race in violation of 42 U.S.C. \u00a7 1983, a constitutional tort. The court
held that the officers were acting in their official capacity as officers of the state when
escorting the Asian Americans out of the restaurant and threatening to arrest them for
disorderly conduct. Thus, Denny\u2019s could not be held liable for the official acts of
government officers. The court also determined, however, that Denny\u2019s could be held
liable for the conduct of the security personnel in escorting the African Americans out of
the restaurant at the urging of the store manager because that conduct was within the
scope of their employment as security personnel.\u2014Lizardo v. Denny\u2019s Inc., 2000.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
