They allege he violated the teen's civil rights.
They argue King acted outside the scope of his judicial authority when he detained her, yelled at her and threatened her with jail time.
"Common sense and the facts demonstrate that a grown man became rattled by a young girl," lawsuit states.
Harrington argues King's conduct occurred outside his purview as a judge.
The lawsuit asks for more than $75,000 on each of the eight alleged violations.
Harrington and Felty argues they acted inappropriately by complying with extra-judicial orders.
