Court of Appeals case on police services
Warren v. District of Columbia
Warren v. District of Columbia (444 A.2d. 1, D.C. Ct. of Ap. 1981) is a District of Columbia Court of Appeals case that held that the police are not under a specific legal duty to provide police services to individual citizens based on the public duty doctrine. The court's decision, written by Judge Joseph M. Hannon, plainly stated that "a government and its agents are under no general duty to provide public services, such as police protection, to any particular individual citizen."
