Sheriff Joe Arpaio’s attorneys have filed a “Motion to Dismiss” in response to Eric Holder’s ridiculous lawsuit alleging racial discrimination by the Sheriff and his deputies against “Latinos” through their enforcement of existing Federal immigration laws.
Arpaio’s lawyers have called on a Federal court in Phoenix to dismiss the DOJ’s lawsuit, in a 23-page response, asserting that Holder failed to back his claims with “sufficient statistical evidence.” Such evidence is required in Federal discrimination lawsuits, and the DOJ has provided none.
The filing also asserts that the DOJ has no ability to even sue the sheriff’s office “because it is a nonjural entity incapable of suing or being sued,” and asked for the sheriff’s office to be dismissed as a defendant. This claim seems well-grounded in case law, and would provide a major hurdle for Holder & Co. if the judge agrees with Arpaio’s claim.
