My work is always…interesting I guess is the right word

@PalteseMalconFunch I think you misunderstand. Generally speaking in cases like this is it not practice that the law that is applied is whatever is the higher level law in a particular case much like how federal judges can't be overruled by a lower court.

If that is not the case could you not have a situation where a city bylaw could overrule your constitution rights?

In terms of what take primacy here seems straightforward. That being said I am not a lawyer.

@PalteseMalconFunch The doctrine of law I was looking for with my example they call Paramountcy here in Canada.

@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow we don’t have anything that applies to this situation because all of this is following the letter of the law

It’s just no one has ever cared enough to make the laws make sense in certain cases

And now one of those cases has manifest

@DunningKruger No, him leaving the detention center will violate a different bond order for a different crime, which will mean he has to be arrested and returned

We regularly deal with the most niche of niche legal situations, it’s kind of our thing

But even for us this guy is in a weird spot

I have to be a bit vague for legal reasons I doubt any of this will make any sense I just needed to vent

@PalteseMalconFunch Sure. I get it. Vent away.

@DunningKruger It’s illegal for him to stay in detention for this crime because he paid his bond

But also once he leaves he’ll be in violation of another bond for a different crime or

And the only reason any of this happening is because the judiciary and the DOC are under a lot of pressure to discharge as many people as possible so they don’t care he’ll be immediately arrested and sent right back in, it will still count as a discharge for their numbers
