Not yet. I keep checking though. You might not know this, but Hank is an attorney and far smarter than anyone else on the site.
At least that is what he told me.

Will disgraced "Judge" Sullivan actually respond or will he have to have somebody else make his case for him?

Boosie team will motion to dismiss under rule 11.

I've heard rumors.

I wonder if those appellate judges even know of the all-powerful rule 11. Boosie better run on up there and tell them. At least shoot them a few emails about it.

If Sullivan does lose, then does he appeal to the entire DC Circuit en banc? He'd likely have a good shot to win there.

It's a good question, was thinking about how bad he wants Gen. Flynn's blood. Will he apply for a writ to SCOTUS? To be honest, this is such a bizarre situation. I've litigated writs of mandamus before, but never against a court.
What would he be fighting for so hard if not his purely partisan and personal vindictiveness against Flynn, which he previously demonstrated in open court when he accused him of treason?
How could it be the integrity of the court? It can't be the integrity of the executive or that would expose his utter bias... it boggles the mind.
BTW... here's the link to the CTH which has the Powell's brief embedded.

I think it'll be a 3-0 case and no en banc appeal will be pursued. The Supreme Court just ruled unanimously on this type of issue weeks ago. And beyond that, the amicus appointed wrote a biased op-ed and is law partners with a guy who represented Sally Yates.

It’s almost like somebody has some dirt on him...possibly from a govt database of all communications....and he’s willing to risk his whole career rather than have that leaked out.

i think they have dirt on him or they create dirt and threaten to plant it and he is a political hack.

What if...
he has a history of protecting family members and/or friends from legal issues...in the swampy type of way.
Maybe that is the trap that is being used?

Wonder if he has a son that likes to get a little rapey sometimes?

Nope. You don’t understand what a lifetime appointment means. Unless he commits an impeachable offense, a federal district court judge can do anything he wants. He can be reversed by the appellate court every single time and continue merrily on his way.

a court shouldn't advance arguments, rather should be passive and rule only upon the arguments set forth by the litigants
I believe this to be the legal issue. A thousand years of common law have repeatedly upheld the maxim that a court considers only the evidence and issues before it. It does NOT introduce argument, evidence, NOTHING. Otherwise, the Court is either a witness or a party, and then where does one turn for an impartial tribunal?
