“- let it proceed - Sullivan may just dismiss. To me that’s a con job”

That was my exact read on Beth Wilkerson trying to soft-pedal a way out for Sullivan. I wasn’t buying but I can’t say the appeals panel won’t.

They could sit on this until July 11th and then just watch to see what Judge Sullivan does but they absolutely shouldn’t.

They should give him no more rope than needed to hand himself and sign the order of dismissal.

The Appeals Court is going to believe that Judge Sullivan will dismiss the case despite the arguments made by the amicus brief because he has done it in the past in a case called Saena Tech. I did a "deep dive" here: Deep Dive on Sullivan and Gleeson

Powell should have focused more on arguments for removing Sullivan from this case because both his appointing Gleeson after the Washington Post article and the brief Judge Sullivan's lawyer filed with the Court of Appeals demonstrate he is not impartial.
