Hi West Memphis; I am from Memphis although I practice in CA now. If your husband is driving to and from work without a license then the cop has the right to check on him. If, on the other hand, your husband now has his license and the cop knows that then this is harassment. There is usually a civilian review board you can complain to as the police themselves won't do anything about it.
