A dispute between the Douglas County district attorney and the sheriff is continuing, with the DA issuing more subpoenas seeking testimony about the credibility of officers in the sheriff’s department. Douglas County Sheriff Jay Armbrister continues to object to those subpoenas as an overreach on the part of the district attorney. All this comes after a Douglas County District Court judge late last month declined to require Armbrister to comply with previously issued subpoenas, but also declined to cancel — or quash, in legal terms — the subpoenas. Instead, Judge Sally Pokorny urged the two elected officials to cooperate.
