Emmet Sullivan has now defied a Federal Appeals Court Order to dismiss the case against the innocent General Michael Flynn.
Sullivan, who presides over what the Justice Department now admits was the wrongful prosecution of President Trumps former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn, refuses to dismiss the case despite an outstanding order from a higher court to do so.
It does not matter if the US Appeals Court is right or wrong anymore, what matters is, they legally ordered Emmet Sullivan to dismiss a case and he has now defied that order. That is CONTEMPT OF A FEDERAL APPEALS COURT.
Once a court is defied, then either Attorney General William Barr, or the Judges of the Appeals Court, any one of them, simply signs a warrant for the arrest of Emmet Sullivan, on contempt charges. This then is handed to the United States Marshals who promptly go out and arrest Comrade Sullivan. There does not need to be an impeachment or any trial.
At this point, a new federal Judge will be appointed to replace Sullivan, and a new federal Judge will be ordered to carry out the orders of dismissing the case against Michael Flynn, there is even a reality that any of the Appeals Judges can sign the dismissal as presiding over this kangaroo court of Sullivan.
Emmet Sullivan, should be handcuffed, hauled away in a van, finger printed, anal searched, dressed in orange jump suit and dumped into the grey bar hotel with the common population. Nothing would be more fitting for what this horrid person has put Michael Flynn through. Let Emmet Sullivan experience what it is like to want to be freed and a Judge will not hear his plea and leave him rot in prison.

Arrest? What kind of moron wrote this?
Evidently someone with no knowledge of the US judicial system and poor impulse control.
Unfortunately there is a lot of false information here. Sullivan had a certain amount of time to take action. He waited until the last moment to ask the Appeals Court to hear the case with a full panel. And the appeals court stayed their order until they decide if they will or not. More briefs have to be filed by both sides.
How ever I do agree that Sullivan is a lawless judge who had no right to not dismiss the case in the first place. He is deep state. And some the appeals justices are as well. So I don’t know how this will go.
You certainly may. He is also, now that I think of it, galactically, spectacularly, splendiferously, cunctatious*!
*Adjective
cunctatious (comparative more cunctatious, superlative most cunctatious)
(formal) Tending to delay or linger.
Since he is behaving so irrationally I think that what is appropriate would be to grab him up off the street and involuntarily commit him to 72-hr mental evaluation.
Arrest this ass with a swat team at 3am. Seems to be the new stansard. Oh wait, that is reserved for innocent men.
Way past time for our Not SO Supreme Court to tell these judges where their power begins and ends.
Almost certainly not years. If the petition for rehearing is denied (a majority of all the active duty judges on the Circuit must vote in favor for it to be granted), the case will be over in a few weeks (barring a petition for certiorari to the Supreme Court). If rehearing is granted, we are looking at about 6 months or so to a decision.
Federal judges, of any political persuasion, do not like to feel that they have been trifled with. Judge Sullivan twice put General Flynn under oath and each time asked him if he was pleading guilty voluntarily, if he had been threatened, if he was really guilty, if he was satisfied with his lawyers, and every other possible question to make the guilty plea bullet-proof. He now feels that either Flynn lied to him or that the Administration is pulling strings to help one of its own.
Ultimately, he is going to have to let Flynn go, but he wants to make clear to the next defendant not to play games in his courtroom--ether plead guilty or go to trial, but don't plead guilty and then try to worm out of it. Judges get defendants trying to do that all the time; Sullivan has seen it all, and is not happy to see it again.
The one liberal on the 3-Judge Panel must have asked for a full hearing must have asked to have a new hearing by all 11 circuit judges. Sullivan is beginning to piss off a lot of judge and lawyers.
He will be lucky if a federal prosecutor or defense attorney ever again allows Sullivan to of their cases.
He has been sitting on the motion to withdraw the guilty plea since January and has ordered Sidney Powell not to file any more amendments to he r motion with new exculpatory information until all the information has been released to her.
I think Sidney should have filed a writ of mandamus to try yo get him to make the decision on the motion to withdraw at the same time as the motion to dismiss issue.
