So my question is, if they reverse judge Cannon’s decision to dismiss and reinstate the case, is the case back in her hands or is there a way for them to get the case reassigned through this?
Not that any of it will happen before the election now, thanks to her…but would be great to see her removed from any future proceedings.
From what I understand the 11th Circuit can either overturn her dismissal and require the case to continue, or they can overturn her dismissal and remove her from the case. Since this will be the third time they’ve smacked her down, many are hoping they will do the latter scenario.
We will see what happens. There’s been too much disappointment in the judiciary lately IMO. Justice needs some wins.
If the higher court overturns Cannon’s dismissal, can Trump appeal the decision to overturn the dismissal? I hate to be pedantic, but I have no idea…
Yes, the next level of appeal would be to the Supreme Court.
And SCOTUS will grant cert, schedule argument for January 21st, the declare the case moot after Trump pardons himself. They’ll then agree that self pardons aren’t even required because a president can’t be held criminally liable for anything. Finally, they will stand behind Trump’s throne and reveal themselves to be the Nazgul.
Someday we’ll read this story on carvings inside a cave
No, humanity will be gone by then :(
From what a professor was saying that while challenging the decisions they can also request removal of the judge due to being the third time showing bias.
This was on NPR btw, her ruling on while she dismissed the case is beyond wrong and there are previous rulings about it being perfectly legal. Second they can just give it to another person to bring up the case, but removal and appealing would be the faster way.
It seems a pretty stupid reason.
Also the evidence is pretty freaking ironclad. He had classified nuclear secrets in his bathroom. its’ been nearly four years. our national security is at risk the longer this guy is not charged and dealt with.
If he wins in November all he has to do is stall for time, and Judge Cannon is helping him do that. Then again, if he wins in November this will be the least of the country’s problems.
