Not restrain the judge. Again, I'm naive here- but I still would have expected the cop to say "Hey judge, can we talk for a second? If I underestand correctly, judges cannot perform law enforcement duty, and more importantly, there is no warrant permitting you to enter. How about we go back to the office and discuss this more widely with the police chief, as I don't feel comfortable possibly abetting you breaking the law. If it turns out it's OK, we can return later to obtain the items."
My guess is the cop was simply ignorant of the law and more than happy to help the judge, ignorantly. But I'm curious if we was sanctioned or if ther was any consequence to him at all.
