Techdirt: Woman Sues Mayor For Order Demanding She Remove City Links From Her Website because the woman spearheaded an effort to recall the mayor. That is, the mayor didn't like what the woman tried to do and asked the city's attorney if it was legal, he was told it was but the lawyer offered to write a cease and desist letter anyway.
Which is to say, the lawyer knew it wasn't legal but did it anyway in support of the mayor. A pretty clear abuse of power if there ever was one.
My guess is the mayor loses the lawsuit and will get bounced from office. Pretty easy trail of stupidity.
Rule #208 is Be Sneakier When You Abuse Your Power
