My question would be why you feel the ones held as children that were over 18 would not be able to sue for violation of their rights.
Understand I am no legal scholar and I would appreciate your take on what I feel is the best case against CPS.
thank you
As I indicated at #187, I guess a claim for false imprisonment (being held against one's will without legal justification) brought by an adult over which the CPS has no jurisdiction could be a formidable claim. I just don't think it would be the gold mine some have suggested. However, I have been surprised by judges' and juries' decisions more times than I would like to admit.
I also did not mean to suggest that suits based on first amendment, fourth amendment, 14th amendment, Sec. 1983, etc. could not be brought. I just don't really look for them to happen, even though they have been threatened according to today's Fort Worth newspaper. Somebody posted the link earlier in this thread.
