That is an inaccurate statement by you. The proof that it is inaccurate is found in a link that you provided.
Please re-read the closing paragraph from your Yale Law link in post#467.
"Thus ended the case of The United States vs Jefferson Davis. It was dismissed from the docket of the Supreme Court at Washington at the motion of the Attorney General of the United States on the 19th of February, 1869. But no formal order was made dismissing the case in the federal court at Richmond, Virginia. So far as that court was concerned, it simply died.
Didn't you find it fascinating that Robert E. Lee was listed among the witnesses upon whose testimony the new 21 page indictment (against Davis) was found?
Your credibility is very suspect in my humble estimation. Could you provide a link that backs up your oft repeated assertion that Honest Abe would have been found out to be a War Criminal had the Supreme Court not dismissed the Davis case? And that his corpse, then a'mouldering in the grave would have been "embarrassed"?
A difference without a distinction, candy. The court let the case die because they didn’t want a trial that would expose disHonest Abe and his criminal government. Even northerners were realizing that Lincoln was wrong. When are you False Causers going to wake up from your fantasy past?
Why is it fascinating that Lee would be called as a witness? He was the commander of the Army of Northern Virginia and had spent a lot of time in Richmond as Davis’ right hand man. You False Causers desperately grasp and the slightest of little straws...........
BTW, you never did answer my question. Very telling.
