“Mueller has been out-lawyered by the Russians and can’t do anything to stop it. Just like a grade school child who didn’t do his homework.”
I think your assessment is absolutely correct. Team-Mueller was not anticipating any aggressive nature and folks would just come around to negotiate some ‘deal’. I think after all the business with Flynn came out....lawyers now think they can beat Team-Mueller in court.
In this case, the judge might react and do one of two things....first, he might force Team-Mueller to proceed in court, fail miserably, and ‘not guilty’ is the ending. Second, he could terminate the case with prejudice and make them look bad. I don’t believe that delaying this for six months will occur. Maybe as a joke, he might agree to delay three days, just to make the Team-Mueller folks squirm.
Yep.
Now, on to discovery...
