How are they hearing a case for which no charges exist? That's not how it works...


The charges were accepted by the Court when the Defendant plead guilty

Did the DOJ not drop the charges?

Which then he's simply trying to withdraw his guilty plea, which yes is a tall order if the prosecution opposes the effort, but if the prosecution signals no opposition or especially if they join in the motion.....rarely is a judge an obstacle to that effort. The only reason such is the case here is because the judge is pissy about the government being so agreeable. Judge has convinced himself that it's scandalous. Which is dumb because the government is the party that is the most in the know as to how a matter should be addressed, thus the government's broad discretion.

I know I'm not telling you anything you aren't aware of, even if you disagree. You're a lawyer if I'm not mistaken.
