Health inspections aren't civil law, they are criminal law. They are actually very similar to parking tickets written by non-police "meter maids". It is still a crime.

You need to go back and understand the difference between criminal law and civil actions. Two different games. Criminally, OJ wasn't guilty, but in a civil case, he was found liable. Very different.
There is one difference. The restaurant has to get a license that requires the inspections. Did you register to obtain a porno website license?

The health inspector can't closed down my personal backyard BBQ grill no matter how fucking nasty it is because I don't have a food service license that places me under their jurisdiction.
