APOST Legal Practice Exam

Graham v. Connor evaluates the reasonableness of police force using an objective standard based on the totality of the circumstances. The factors typically considered are the severity of the crime, the immediacy of the threat, and whether the suspect is actively resisting or attempting to flee. The suspect's age is not one of these factors in the Graham framework. Age might influence other judgments or policies, but it is not a listed factor in determining the reasonableness of force under Graham. So, the factor not part of the Graham v. Connor standard is the suspect's age.
