But, the city is the only entity to sue:

The judge is pretty much protected from any civil suits.
The individual police are almost completely protected from any civil suits.
The jurors are almost completely protected from any civil suits.

He already promised not sue the state, so the entity responsible for the
judge is safe.
He already promised not sue the state, so the entity responsible for the
jury is safe.

So, the entity which has responsibility for the police, the DA, etc are the
only potential responsible parties that can be sued.

I think.

The city today is the same entity as the city 20 years and 100 years ago, so
that argument won't fly.
