Description
The defendants, agents of the Tennessee Board of Barber Examiners, a state licensing agency, appeal a jury verdict for compensatory and punitive damages awarded under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (1976). Plaintiffs, applicants for a license to operate a barber shop in Knoxville, claim that defendants deprived them of liberty and property without due process by refusing them a license. The principal question on appeal is whether a private citizen who competes in business with a state regulatory official is unconstitutionally deprived of a liberty or property interest when that official, acting in concert with others on the regulatory board, intentionally misapplies state licensing law to keep her from obtaining an occupational license. We hold that such conduct violates due process and affirm the judgment of the District Court.
