Jon Roland (Candidate for Texas Attorney General) Talks to Houston Business Connections: Tells Publisher Aubrey R. Taylor why Harris County voters should choose him in the Nov. 7, 2006, General Election ROLAND: "As Texas Attorney General I would: 1. Assert control over Office of the Attorney General to comply with U.S. and state constitutions, and constitutional statutes and judicial rules and precedents. 2. Work to establish quo warranto actions, decided by juries, against misconduct of state and local officials, and when appropriate, remove them from office. 3. Intervene to maintain Open Courts provision of Texas Constitution, and prevent courts from penalizing exercise of the right of petition by overuse of sanctions, or inappropriate dismissal of principled actions or arguments as "frivolous". 4. Intervene to establish the right to a presumption of nonauthority in all cases between an individual and an official. 5. Intervene to establish the right to have all issues of law argued in the presence of the jury, except where argument could not avoid revealing evidence that should properly be excluded. 6. Intervene to establish the principle that judges and other officials only have official immunity for actual executions of their lawful duties, not for all of their actions while "on duty", and that such immunity is only against execution of money judgments, not from being sued. 7. Act against officials, especially judges and prosecutors, who protect illegal drug trafficking. 8. Act to reduce abuses in Child Protective Services operations. 9. Intervene to protect Texas citizens from abuse by federal officials. 10. Intervene to get grand juries to investigate public misconduct, independently of public prosecutors, and to revive private criminal prosecutions." |
