Weagle. Clearly you don't have a legal background. This is 1L crim law stuff here. You are making a fool of yourself. Just stop.


Also...the case does not even say what you say it does. The case was overturned because the court ruled that for due process clause purposes, plaintiff did not have a property interest in police enforcing a restraining order.

Additionally, the Court relied upon state law to determine if there was a property right. Colorado didn't have one. This isn't a blanket ruling. It is a specific procedural ruling based on state laws in place. This case is in no way applicable to San Jose on so many levels.

Huge swing and miss.

Are you saying this is the only case where this topic has been discussed? My understanding is this topic has been covered several times by the Court.

quote:

Warren v. District of Columbia[1] (444 A.2d. 1, D.C. Ct. of Ap. 1981) is an oft-quoted[2] District of Columbia Court of Appeals case that held that the police do not owe a specific duty to provide police services to citizens based on the public duty doctrine.


And you are correct, I am not a lawyer. Thankfully.

Police have no duty to protect individuals (several cases cited)
