“I guess there is no such thing as a default ruling in Georgia.”
___________
You didn’t read the ruling. Taitz won the case and then threw it away. She was offered a default judgement but refused it and asked to have her evidence weighed. Instead of taking the victory she introduced her “evidence” and the court found it lacking. Her “experts” are unqualified or she failed to produce credentials, her “evidence” is conclusory internet rumor rather than convincing.
This case was lost because of poor lawyering. She should have jumped on the default judgemetn, and if we do have a friend in the Secretary of State’s office (as some have suggested), he would have had a great excuse- A COURT FINDING- to keep Obama off the ballot.
I cannot see from the court’s holding, an avenue for appeal. If you want to unseat a sitting president, you can’t use a lawyer with a degree off of the internet!!!!!
We don't know that the judge would have actually issued a default judgment. He says in the ruling:
Ordinarily, the Court would enter a default order against a party that fails to participate in any stage of a proceeding.
Well, oridinarily a court still finds against that party for not mounting a defense. In this instance, the judge takes up their cause for them. Who's to say he wouldn't have done that without the proceeding??
