The judge held the held the hearing, the Schindler attorneys present no new evidence, no reason for overturning the original decision. So the judge ruled against them. He abided by the letter of the legislation.

Whitmore held a hearing. Gibbs did not present any "de novo" facts for consideration; all he did was regurgitate complaints about the way Greer handled the state case.

You get what you pay for with a pro bono barrister.

Congress doesn't have the Constitutional authority to order a de novo review. Any move by Congress to tell the Courts how to conduct in-court procedures is a direct violation of the Constitution.

I was listening to Rush this morning and learned that one of the things the congress changed in order to get their bill through was to change the wording. They did not mandate a de novo, because some congress critters were afraid of a mandate. They just asked the judges to take another look from the beginning.

Delay was part of the crew who insisted upon sending a Congressional Government Reform Committee to Florida to appeal the stay. I'm certain he is capable of carrying this through.
