Mayors due have what is referred to as Conservator of the Peace Powers which enable them to act in full accordance with the law as a Law Enforcement Officer, IF they have obtained the required 400 hour Basic Law Enforcement training and the proper Form E has been filled out showing their compliance. If however; a Mayor has not achieved this training then he or she may not affect arrests however can directly enforce local ordinances where as a custodial arrest may be warranted.

Is it possible to get a restraining order against the police?

If a police officer is acting in his official capacity, you cannot put a restraining order on him. If, for example, an officer is investigating you for something, you cannot stop him from investigating. If you feel an officer is violating your rights in his official capacity, the best thing to do is go to the officer's supervisor and try to resolve the problem. When an officer is not acting in his official capacity, like he's your neighbor and is bothering you, then you can get a restraining order against him. Remember, when not acting as an officer, he is just a private citizen; just like you.
