Tom,

Is it really a folder, or a file? What is it called? I'm always 
curious how empty 'System' folders (directories) get to the Trash, in 
the first place.

If it's really a directory/folder then typing sudo rm -r  (thats a 
space between the 'm' and the hyphen) followed by a space, then drag 
the folder to the Terminal window, hit return, type your password, 
hit return again, and it's gone.

As long as you didn't have "Show Invisibles' enabled, and dragged the 
folder out of "System" you'll be fine. Otherwise, it's best to leave 
system-owned folders alone. As a regular User, we can't 'lock' a 
Folder, only a file. So, if it's really a folder, and it's locked, 
then it's a System folder.
