“[The plaintiffs] Monell claim requires an underlying constitutional deprivation, which [the plaintiff] is unable to demonstrate based on the record before this court. See Quintanilla v. City of Downey, 84 F.3d 353, 356 (9th Cir.1996) (plaintiff could not recover on § 1983 claim against city or police chief absent showing that individual arresting officers violated his constitutional rights); Scott v. Henrich, 39 F.3d 912, 916 (9th Cir.1994) (municipality’s liability under § 1983 pursuant to City of Canton, 489 U.S. at 389 , 109 S.Ct. 1197 , was contingent on underlying violation of constitutional rights).”
