State's Constitution
Must be something in their state's constitution since lawmakers passed a law..
I don't remember off hand but NC does have specified duties for elected Sheriff's and their Deputies - serving warrants and summons comes to mind.
I would think the deligated LEO duties would be the same for counties as it would be for cities.
Must be a turf war with the big city Chief's.
Edited to add - OK, I read the ruling. That was really pretty interesting. From that rulling I'd have to agree with the Judges. Still don't know what got everyone so we-weed up that they had to pass a law stripping powers Sheriffs had gathered over the yeras.
