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.
