A quick search won't help you these days

Okay, what is the law?
The internet quick searches are being overtaken by weird commercial interests. There is so much garbage on the net we will soon be buried under it. I m awaiting the day for the rise of the specialty search engines (already popular in academia).

But a longer search:

Quote:
Art. 2.14. MAY SUMMON AID. Whenever a peace officer meets with resistance in discharging any duty imposed upon him by law, he shall summon a sufficient number of citizens of his county to overcome the resistance; and all persons summoned are bound to obey.

Acts 1965, 59th Leg., vol. 2, p. 317, ch. 722.


Art. 2.15. PERSON REFUSING TO AID. The peace officer who has summoned any person to assist him in performing any duty shall report such person, if he refuse to obey, to the proper district or county attorney, in order that he may be prosecuted for the offense.

Arresting people is one if his duties, congrats, you have been deputized...
