PHOENIX – The Justice Department has asked a federal judge in Arizona to force Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio and his office to provide full and immediate access to records and facilities for a civil-rights investigation without going to trial.
The motion for summary judgment filed Monday also asks the court to force the sheriff's office to comply with all future requests involving the probe.
Earlier this month, the Justice Department filed an unprecedented lawsuit against Arpaio's office for refusing to turn over documents or allow federal officials to evaluate jails and interview staff.

Weh Weh Weh. De mean ole sheriff isn’t playing fair. I’m going to hold my breath until I turn blue.
....I don’t think Arpaio was resisting at any point, was he?
Arpaio has turned over a mountain of documents.
Who’s civil rights?? The foreign Criminals? how do these have rights?
Hey Perez, your job ends in 2 years, maybe your cell will be near Holder’s.
arrest the judge. He is not immune to local law.
The Feds are fishing without any bait. Hope they get sent home with an empty Creel.
>He is not immune to local law.
Actually, he is immune to legal consequences for anything at all that happens in, or as a result of, his courtroom - and that includes any kooky or outright unlawful decision that he could make.
IOW, if he issues a court order for you to be castrated and he finds people to do so, he is immune.
Its a bitch isn’t it?

I watched “Law Abiding Citizen” yesterday and thought it wonderfully poetic that the judge whose decision to exclude evidence forced the prosecutor hero to make a plea deal with a murderer is killed right after saying “I’m a judge. I can do anything I want.”
They do tend to believe that or so it seems...
How about looking drunk or broken tail light while DWI?
Well, those aren’t exactly actions that are taken in the courtroom are they?
I think what Bert is saying is that the locals should take control when you have a judge is out of line. Use local law to make his life misearable like he is doing to poeple in his court room.
That is right. If not the judge, then his staff and clerks. Harass the hell out of them. . Tit for tat.
