In October 2017, two constables, Chad Riley and Mark Phillips, filed a civil lawsuit against Sheriff Mark Lusk, alleging that he unlawfully denied them work in the county. The constables claimed that Lusk lacked the authority to terminate their assignments and suggested that the dismissals were politically motivated, as Riley had previously run against Lusk in the Republican primary, with Phillips supporting Riley’s campaign. The lawsuit contended that Lusk’s actions were unconstitutional and exceeded his jurisdiction over constables’ work.
