Sounds like some Fundamental Change at work….

Statute > EO

"The tone Smith is taking with Cannon is no longer persuasion but outright threats. Unheard of dynamic btw DOJ and the bench."

Will go over her head unless she rules in his favor now on jury instructions.

What is the threat? How will he go over her head?

If it's actually a threat - She should just hold him in contempt, fine him, lock him up for 30 days, and then tell him to see how things go from there.

Don't look to the judiciary to actually fix things though. In the end, the judiciary is Big Gov.

Seek “mandamus” at the appellate court.

Jack deserves two threads he is such a loser.

No he isn't. He specifically uses that EO

quote:

---

An EO by any president will be law.

SCOTUS essentially said this when Trump rescinded DACA.

quote:

---

Appeal to the 11th. Something about mandamus.

Thanks.

This doesn't seem like the proper time for Smith to pursue a writ of mandamus unless he has judge-shopped and knows he can get one.

Even if he gets one, this judge should refuse to follow it. If Trump were to win in November, this trial would not be complete and it would be moot.

From the Legal Information Institute:
A (writ of) mandamus is an order from a court to an inferior government official ordering the government official to properly fulfill their official duties or correct an abuse of discretion. See e.g. Cheney v. United States Dist. Court For D.C. (2004).According to the U.S. Department of Justice, "Mandamus is an extraordinary remedy, which should only be used in exceptional circumstances of peculiar emergency or public importance."

Mandamus at the Federal Level

In federal courts, these orders most frequently appear when a party to a suit wants to appeal a judge's decision but is blocked by rules against interlocutory appeals. Instead of appealing directly, the party simply sues the judge, seeking a mandamus compelling the judge to correct their earlier mistake. Generally, this type of indirect appeal is only available if the party has no alternative means of seeking review.

The All Writs Act (28 U.S. Code § 1651) gave the "Supreme Court and all courts established by Act of Congress" the authority to issue writs of mandamus "in aid of their respective jurisdictions and agreeable to the usages and principles of law."

Further, 28 U.S. Code § 1361 gave federal district courts "original jurisdiction of any action in the nature of mandamus to compel an officer or employee of the United States or any agency thereof to perform a duty owed to the plaintiff."

Wouldn’t that EO Obama made be also useful against Biden?
