and Anderson, the Fourth Circuit in Sevigny v. Dicksey, 846 F.2d 953, 956 (4th Cir.1988), framed the qualified immunity inquiry as proceeding on a general “objective legal reasonableness” level as well as a more specific fact-oriented level. It is beyond peradventure that officials who willfully, intentionally or recklessly keep an inmate in prison past the date he was ordered released are liable under section 1983 for infringing upon the inmate’s personal liberty protected by the substantive due process clause of the Fourteenth Amendment. See Johnson v. Mueller, 415 F.2d 354, 355 (4th Cir.1969) (inmate’s allegations that superintendent of prison kept him confined past term of his sentence was actionable under section 1983); Speaks v. McGregor, 355 F.Supp. 1129, 1131-32 (W.D.Va.1973) (<HOLDING>); see also Gay v. Wall, 761 F.2d 175, 178-79
