In the lawsuit that the ACLU filed against the DHS, in regards to the campaigner for Ron Paul who was carrying $4700 in cash and was detained by the TSA, to get the ACLU to drop the lawsuit, the DHS agreed to limit their inspections to WEI and not take out and count the money passengers were carrying, but it looks like the TSA feels it does not have to abide by this agreement.

I wonder if the TSA, or the supervisor on duty be held in contempt of court?

If it happened to me, I would immediately demand the ......... stop their inspection, quoting the lawsuit settlement, and if they ignore me, demand an LEO be called, I would ask to LEO to document the inspection by viewing the tapes and I would then contact the Boston office of the ACLU as soon as I can and ask them if they could reopen the lawsuit because the TSA is still continuing to count passengers money in direct violation of the settlement.
