A rogue coroner, meanwhile, is arrested by the municipal dogcatcher.
And in the end, after the toxic smoke clears, and the radioactive glow fades, and the last living thing long ago breathed its last... the cheese stands alone.
Alternatively, the undead are allowed to arrest the coroner for unlawful imprisonment.
That is a citizen's arrest, though, and follows different penal codes.
I mean I've read it somewhere that a bunch of turtles got mutated into super hero ninjas but, like, that doesn't make it real.
What do you mean, not real? There's like at least 5 documentaries about them. Do your research. 🐢🐢🐢🐢🐀
Looking real relevant nowadays
I am astonished they didn't spell it "rouge."
Everyone knows rouge judges only have authority in beauty pageants
As this is a repost from 7 months ago, I am quoting a comment from @JustZ@lemmy.world:
Like many things sov cit this originates with something based in reality.
A long time ago in different places and different times, the coroner was separate from the police and sheriffs and was charged with investigating other officials if for some reason the usual officials could not, either because of a vacancy or conflict of interest. Coroners customarily have arrest powers. So if the local sheriff was completely corrupt, you might be able to go to the coroner to get a remedy.
The same could of course be true for a judge who is not doing their job. The problem with that is that judges typically have absolute immunity for their official acts and discretionary acts. The remedy for a corrupt judge is to go to the senior judge or to the governor. The other problem with it is that there's also a civil remedy for a judge who is not doing their job called a writ of mandamus; it's basically an application to an a equal or superior court for an order to require an official to perform their duty.
BUZZER!!!
Oh, sorry, buddy! The correct answer is "comptroller." Better luck next time!
A Sherrif can be removed by a governor, recall election, or a felony conviction while in office.
I don't really agree with the felony conviction or governor removal. It made sense to me up until about 100 days ago, then I changed my mind. Now I think it should be recall or impeachment by the state house/senate.
What these sovcit posts are always missing is the outcome of the case in real life.
They seldom say is why.
Probably no WiFi in prison, yes.
