What is the test for qualified immunity in the context of a search of a home during which a police search resulted in a search warrant being issued for a drug dealer's home?

MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from Chuman v. Wright, 980 F.2d 736 (9th Cir. 1992):

The only question for review of the denial of summary judgment on qualified immunity is whether the government agents acted reasonably under settled law in the circumstances. Hunter v. Bryant, 112 S.Ct. 534, 537 (1991). The officers contend that the search of the home was constitutional because it was conducted pursuant to a valid warrant.
