Suspended Alabama Chief Justice Roy Moore has been asked to turn over his keys and clean out his office.
Acting chief justice Lyn Stuart sent two letters to Moore's Etowah County home in Gallant on Monday.
In one letter Stuart states that since Moore was recently found guilty of the ethics charges he must contact the court's marshal "to arrange the removal of your personal effects from your office and to return your keys (both brass and card) to the Judicial Building on or before October 18, 2016."
In the other letter Stuart told Moore that "in an effort to keep the judiciary running smoothly and efficiently, any letters addressed to the Chief Justice that appear to contain official information will be opened by my staff."
"Letters that appear to be personal will not be opened," Stuart wrote. "Any unopened mail or opened mail that is personal will be held and made available for you to pick up from the Marshals."

Good riddance to a self-appointed autocrat.
WARNING: Don't read too far down in the Comments section. It turns redneck pretty quickly, though it's good to see a lot of people glad to see him go.
