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.
Thank you
It will be an interesting case to follow
