Huh? They can defy the courts?
The most intertaining and enjoyable time of my life in a court room as an expert was when I was to testify in a parole revocation hearing and the defendant, the son of a close associate of Edwin Edwards, decided the night before court to have himself committed because he felt suicidal.
We were in the Judges Chamber and the defendants Doctor, on the phone, told the Judge that he couldn't release the patient for some half-baked reason. The Judge told the Doc. I'm sending a Deputy to pick him up, you can have him when I through with him. The Doc protested until the Judge explained that he could come with the Deputy as a guest if he didn't like his decision. I've never seen anyone backpedal as fast as that Doc.
