On August 30, 2006, Federal District Judge Sam Crow granted Frank Pase and the City of Topeka summary judgement on a claim alleging that Pase engaged in an illegal and reckless chase of a vehicle that struck another vehicle occupied by Danielle Rhoten at 6th & Topeka Boulevard.  While Rhoten tragically lost her child that was due to be born approximately two weeks after the accident, Crow found no constituional violation by Pase or the City.   The 10th Circuit affirmed the summary judgment ruling on October 23, 2007.  http://www.ca10.uscourts.gov/opinions/06/06-3346.pdf
