Studying state law

| | Comments (0)

Some of you might have been surprised to read in today's paper that there is actually a state law that incriminates public officials who are intoxicated while holding office. If you'd like to examine the code for yourselves, here it is:

3001.  Any State, county, or city officer who is intoxicated while
in discharge of the duties of his office, or by reason of
intoxication is disqualified for the discharge of, or neglects his
duties, is guilty of a misdemeanor.  On conviction of such
misdemeanor he forfeits his office, and the vacancy occasioned
thereby shall be filled in the same manner as if the officer had
filed his resignation in the proper office.
