Prior to posting this ruling, FNC reported that Corey signed the affidavit that led to Zimmerman’s arrest and prosecution.
As you know, she was not the advocate in this case. If she did sign the affidavit, she could be held civilly liable. You certainly would not disagree with that, would you.
That said, the FNC report may not be accurate.
If Corey actually signed the PC affidavit, she’s dumber than I thought. No way would I EVER have done that.
No defendant was ever worth my license to practice law, and no client is now.
“As you know, she was not the advocate in this case. If she did sign the affidavit, she could be held civilly liable. You certainly would not disagree with that, would you.”
That’s what I said, and that’s what Kalina v. Fletcher holds. Your intro on this post says that a prosecutor can be held liable if they “draft” the PC. Drafting is different than signing. Drafting is covered by immunity. Signing is not. That’s the holding of Kalina.
O’Steen and Galbreth (sp) signed the Affidavit of Probable Cause. BDLR signed the Issue Capius. http://www.scribd.com/mobile/doc/88953520
