than needed, meaning a recall election would move forward. but now that may not happen. we believe that the recall is the waggle. >> jim sutton is the attorney for the pamela price campaign. he says the recall was illegal because the county did not follow the law as stated in the county's charter. >> the charter says it clears clear can be. that the registrar pass to verify the signatures within 10 days and that the board of supervisors has to give the registrar money to hire the staff to complete the verification within 10 days. they they didn't complete the verification for about 5 or 6 weeks. well beyond the deadline. so therefore, the recall cannot move forward. second of all, the county charter also says very clearly that the only people that can gather signatures on the recall petition, our residents of the county and for good reason you don't want out of county special interests overturning a legitimate county election yet we know

that that dozens are not more of the people circulating. petition were not county residents. the registrar of voters is expected to certify the vote at the board of supervisors meeting april 30th. >> it's at that time. the board can also set p date for the recall election itself. district attorney plans to before that time asked the board of supervisors to not schedule because it's illegal. if the board moves forward anyway, it's likely district attorney pamela price will sue the county. it's a writ of mandate against the county. >> asking the court to tell the county, but it cannot move forward with election because it violates county charter. >> now, the last few hours we reached out to the county counsel's office for comment. we have not heard back from them. all right, dan, thank you for that. in the last few hours, san francisco district attorney. >> brooke jenkins revealed her office must release cease-fire protesters. those were the
