Nancy's paperwork will be interesting, somewhere she is going to have to stateexactly which office is being held by DJ Trump, from which she believes he should be removed.
When I used the term civil procedure I couldn't remember "sui generis"
and could only remember it is applied against
civil office holders,
typically by civil office holders.
From Constitution below: "Article I § 2 of the United States Constitution gives the House of Representatives the sole power to impeach (make formal charges against) and Article I § 3 gives the Senate the sole power to try impeachments. Article II § 4 of the Constitution provides as follows:
"The President, Vice President
and all civil officers of the United States,
shall be removed from office on impeachment for,
and conviction of, treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors."
Impeachment is not a civil procedure,
The Senate does not "do" civil procedures.

any mention of being applied to a civilian ?
Although, when I was a kid and my father was teaching me general legal principles,
he reminded me that in a few municipalities in the United States,
impeachments against local officials can take place by non elected civil officers who are hired,
although he didn't bother making me do research on the actual organizations.
He told me they are quite few, & almost all among the earliest-settled Eastern seaboard states.
Against
civil officers by civil officers.
Yeah I couldn't remember the term.
"Impeachment is a sui generis constitutional process — a class of its own. "
