The term includes an intentional or corrupt failure, refusal, or neglect of an officer to perform a duty imposed on the officer by law. Acts 1987, 70th Leg., ch. 149, Sec. 1, eff. Sept. 1, 1987.

I would love it if Gov Abbot fired ANY sheriff/judge/DA/politician who defied the immigration laws. In fact, I would encourage him to do so...he can start with Sheila Lee Jackson, Al Green and John Cornyn. But since we have to do this the long way...I'm hopeful that very soon that there will be judges that will be doing this for the sake of their citizens. -- 'If you're going through Hell, keep going." -Winston Churchill "The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing." -Edmund Burke Hard times create strong men, Strong men create good times, Good times create weak men, Weak men create hard times, |
