Ceballos case discussed in the text, Ceballos a deputy district attorney with the Garcetti's Los Angeles District Attorney's office, wrote a memo to his supervisors recommending they dismiss a case based on factual inaccuracies in the affidavit that secured a search warrant. Thereafter, Ceballos claimed he suffered retaliation and denial of promotion, and filed suit against the
DA's office claiming violations of his First, Fourth and Fifth Amendment rights. The U.S. Supreme Court held:
