Heads Up-Wonder if we are going to need another conservative judge soon? Just picked this up from Neon Revolt on Gab.

Remember the Flynn Intelligence Group - F.I.G. - and why he can’t disclose certain details right now...

A new legal filing appears to ask the U.S. Supreme Court to intervene for the first time in Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation into the 2016 election.

The document, which is under seal, stems from a Dec. 18 federal appeals court ruling that required an unidentified company, owned by an unidentified foreign country, to turn over information to a grand jury.

The dispute is believed to be tied to Mueller’s probe, although public information about the case doesn’t mention him or the investigation....

The grand jury dispute has been shrouded in mystery, in part because officials closed an entire floor of a federal courthouse in Washington during arguments on Dec. 7.

Politico linked the case to Mueller in October, citing a conversation overheard by a reporter in the court clerk’s office.

The appeals court order described the company only as a “corporation” owned by “Country A.” The three-judge panel rejected contentions that a federal sovereign-immunity law shielded the company from having to comply.

The new filing asks Chief Justice John Roberts to temporarily block that ruling. The Supreme Court’s online docket includes the number of the appeals court case but doesn’t say who submitted the application.

Foreign company in possibly Mueller-related secret case heads to Supreme Court

The unnamed company owned by a foreign country that is challenging a grand jury subpoena issued in federal court in Washington is asking the Supreme Court to step in.

This week, “Corporation A” that is owned by “Country A” lost its challenge against having to comply with a grand jury subpoena that many believe has been issued by special counsel Robert Mueller.

The U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit rejected the challenge by the company to quash the subpoena late Tuesday night.

On Saturday, the company formally filed an application with Supreme Court, asking it to intervene and stay the lower court's decision — and has also asked that the case remain under seal.

The company is also asking the Supreme Court to halt the continuing $5,000 per week fine it is incurring for not complying with the subpoena, an effort Judges David S. Tatel, Thomas B. Griffith, and Stephen F. Williams of the D.C. Circuit also rejected this week.

Legal expert Steve Vladeck said on Twitter that if the Supreme Court takes up the case and keeps it under seal, it will be the first time the highest court in the land has conducted plenary review, including oral arguments, under seal. MORE..
