Don’t get on my case about it by quoting something from the code.

The authorities have the code, too.

You can read it, but you can’t bring an official legal case as a citizen. You have to have a duly constituted government official bring a case.

You can complain, you can tell a prosecutor’s office your situation and you can show them something written in a code. You don’t have the authority, power, to force them to initiate an official legal proceeding, and you yourself can’t do that.

You can file civil lawsuits.

A lawsuit would not be taken up by the judge it was filed with, until your case as a criminal defendant was over.

That’s reality.

Sorry you don’t like it.

I had nothing whatsoever to do with it.

I just reported what it is.

the only *case* i got on was that of a condescending answer of 'realityville' to a simple question, which BTW, "Thank You" for taking the time to finally answer in yer last post...8^}

i guess i shouldve just asked if Zimm had 'standing' to file such, and it wouldve been a yes/no answer instead of an attempt to belittle an ally with smartassed comments that didnt answer the question...

If that is the case then:

1. What are private prosecutors? And has common law been invalidated so as to make their use verboten?
2. Explain why 42 USC §1983 - Civil action for deprivation of rights exists, and how a citizen cannot instigate a civil suit on his own behalf.
3. If none of the above are valid, then why is this not precisely a case wherein evils have become insufferable for the entire "system" to be changed?
