Judges fight move to break up 9th Circuit Court of Appeals
The Washington Examiner ^ | March 13, 2017 | Ryan Lovelace

Posted on 03/13/2017 5:11:39 AM PDT by kevcol

Judges from the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals are urging senators not to pass legislation to break up that district, which President Trump said was in a state of "chaos."

The Judicial Administration and Improvement Act of 2017 would create a new 12th Circuit Court of Appeals covering Alaska, Arizona, Idaho, Montana, Nevada and Washington state. The states remaining in the new 9th Circuit would include California, Oregon, Hawaii and the territories of Guam and the Northern Mariana Islands.

“This congress is as do-nothing as any that has ever been seated. They have the president and control of both houses, and only two for certain years to get things done. The congress should be fired up and roaring down the tracks like the Wabash Cannonball.”

McConnell and Ryan are not interested in advancing a conservative agenda. Other than their meaningless show votes to fool the rubes out in fly-over country, they are focused on advancing legislation their lobbyist donors want.

“This bill needs to be fast tracked.”

Absolutely.

I think their jurisdiction should become a few blocks of main street in Podunk, Iowa.

AK, AZ, MT, ID and NV deserve better than the Ninth Circus.

Congress should move the 9th’s courthouse to Guam.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

That could cause that island to tip over. Do you want that on your conscience?

Move the Ninth Circuit to Bakersfield CA. Half the judges will quit within a year.

Move the 9th from the uber-high cost of San Francisco to say, Eugene, Or, or Bakersfield. Let Trump negotiate the rent. Has benefit that lower cost of living = lower wages, lower retirement costs.

The judges don’t have a say in the matter.

I enjoyed typing that.

“Isn’t Guam going to capsize any day now?”


No, the 9th Circus would be on the other side, so as to balance off the extra weight from the additional military personnel and equipment. Balance will be restored to Guam. Please tell Congressmoron Hank Johnson, I’m sure that he’ll be relieved.

These judges comprise the most overturned Federal Circuit Court in the country. Where is the credibility in their opposition?
