CA-GOV: Bonta Takes Bianco Election Probe Fight To State Supreme Court
Attorney General Rob Bonta Friday filed a new petition with the California Supreme Court in an effort to halt Sheriff Chad Bianco’s ongoing investigation into last November’s special statewide election, first reported by The Riverside Record.
“In any context, a dispute involving a sheriff’s claimed authority to arrogate to himself the constitutional powers of the attorney general would warrant this court’s review,” the petition said. “The importance of the dispute is only magnified in this case because the sheriff rejects the attorney general’s supervision to pursue an unprecedented investigation into purported election fraud.”
Bianco did not immediately respond to a request for comment by The Record.
In the filing, the California Department of Justice (DOJ) asked that the court determine whether Bianco was “violating the constitution and the government code by refusing to follow supervisory directives issued by the attorney general,” and whether action by the appellate court to order the sheriff to comply with Bonta’s orders was warranted to address Bianco’s “extraordinary and ongoing constitutional and statutory violation.”
