MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) Suspended Alabama Chief Justice Roy Moore said Wednesday that he has not cleared out his courthouse office despite a request by the acting chief justice to remove his personal items.
Acting Chief Justice Lyn Stuart asked Moore to empty his office by Tuesday evening. Moores lawyers have asked the Alabama Supreme Court to overrule Stuart, saying the directive is premature since Moore is appealing his suspension.
When you are suspended from office, you are not removed. We are appealing it, Moore said Wednesday. He said he did not think Stuart had the authority to issue the directive. Moore said Wednesday that he has not received any follow-up communication from Stuart or the court. A spokesman for the court system said Stuarts office had no comment on the matter Wednesday.
A judicial panel last month suspended Moore for the remainder of his term after finding he urged state probate judges to defy the federal courts on gay marriage.

Whatever.
How many times have judges ordered evicted poor people to have their stuff placed on the curb. No difference here. He can remove his shit or it should be removed for him.
