WALLER, Chief Justice, for the Court:

¶ 1. Alexander Gardner sued the City of Jackson, alleging that he had suffered a broken leg when one of the City's police officers forced him to sit down while in handcuffs. The City filed for summary judgment, which was denied by the trial court. On review of the City's interlocutory appeal, we now reverse the trial court's denial of summary judgment and render judgment in favor of the City.
