A Senior US District Judge from Washington state, John C. Coughenour, has quashed a move by Oregon Standoff defense attorney Marcus Mumford to remove himself from the disbarment process against Mumford.
The top federal judge in Oregon, Michael Mosman, is seeking the disbarment of Mumford from the federal court in Oregon over his behavior in the first Oregon Standoff trial.
The disbarment move follows the decision by the federal government to dismiss criminal charges against Marcus Mumford, who was tackled, tased and arrested, after the not guilty verdicts were read out on October 27th last year.
The federal marshals who descended upon him as Mumford argued before a judge for the paperwork confirming that his client, Ammon Bundy, was to be held on charges related to the April 2014 Bunkerville Standoff in Nevada, claimed Mumford was threatening them.
Judge Coughenour agreed to a request by federal prosecutors to drop the criminal charges after Mumford's lawyer asked for communications between the marshals.
Mumford's legal assistant and other defense lawyers said the federal marshals in the courtroom were antagonistic towards him.
Judge Coughenour in his quashing of Mumford's motion to recuse himself, wrote of Mumford trying to delay the disbarment proceeding against him.
Coughenour had previously rejected a motion by Marcus Mumford to change the record of the trial, another indication that the judge is hostile to Mumford.
A full evidentiary hearing on the disbarment of Marcus Mumford from Oregon's federal court is set next month (January 8th and 9th) in Portland.
How Soviet can you can get?
Michael Mosman, the senior fed judge going after Marcus Mumford is a George W. Bush appointee, graduate of Brigham Young University.
The apparent "hanging judge" for the disbarment is a Ronald Reagan appointee.
A deep state, a piled higher and deeper state.
I presume there is no video of what happened?
When the beast drags a real USAian into court, it does not want to hear anything about the actual law of the land, USConstitution. If one dares to say those kinds of words in its _court_ they crush you.
Thank God we have a Republican Majority in congress to reign in these tyrannical judges under their Direct Control.
