““ ‘In assessing qualified immunity, we engage in a two-step analysis. First, we determine whether a plaintiff has alleged the violation of a clearly established constitutional right under the current state of the law.’ R.A.M. Al-Ra’id v. Ingle, 69 F.3d 28 , 31 (5th Cir.1995). ‘Second, if the plaintiff has alleged such a constitutional violation, we decide whether this defendant’s conduct was “objectively reasonable,” measured by reference to the law as clearly established at the time of the challenged conduct.’ Id. at 31 (internal citations omitted).””
