Before a Dothan judge can determine whether the city’s personnel board acted appropriately in upholding the discipline of a police officer who made controversial Facebook posts, he must first determine the criteria he can consider to make his ruling.

Circuit Judge Butch Binford heard arguments Tuesday in the case of Dothan Police Cpl. Raemonica Carney, who was disciplined by Police Chief Greg Benton earlier this year after he was made aware of Facebook posts she made concerning Christopher Dorner, a former Los Angeles Police Department officer who is believed to have killed two officers and two others before being pursued to a California cabin where an exchange of gunfire occurred. A fire erupted in the cabin and Dorner died in the fire.
