-- Mueller also didn't have to sign that "Unopposed" order. --

Oops, I see I likely mistook your point here.

If you are referring to the Judge's order to produce exculpatory evidence, that was sua sponte by the judge. If Mueller wants to oppose that order, he has to do so on appeal. He would have to object to it (or it would be best to), of course, in the context of the trial, but seeing as how the order tracks case law, opposing it would be nonsense.

Mueller wasn't given the opportunity to sign it. It was issued to him on the judge's volition.

For many years, the Court has entered a standing order in every criminal case requiring the government to produce any evidence in its possession that is favorable to the defendant and material to either the defendant's guilt or punishment pursuant to Brady v. Maryland, 373 U.S. 83 (1963) and its progeny. The order is entered regardless of the posture of the case when it is assigned to the Court.

From Docket for US v. Flynn, District Court, District of Columbia, 1:17-cr-00232
