This has been in my backlog to get to. WOW. You broke this down! Resteeming this. See, I knew there was some sort of legal shift the second you let them in. I knew there was. Now, I know what it is. Thank you so much for this. If I could resteem it twice, I would!!!
I love how hearing this from a an experienced lawyer on these things makes you feel: empowered.
And it's true: If it were a true emergency, they would already have a court order in their hands. Period.
