About The Case
This case started it all... It
was the first time in the history of law in
the United States that a sitting judge has been
successfully sued and
LOST in a civil action.
The
cop (Police Lieutenant Harris) garnished the judge's wages during the lengthy
appeal process.
The court case is available
for anyone who is interested in learning how this case came about, and how
Harris was able to pierce the cloak of judicial immunity.
