So Prof. Gillers please explain the source of the legal requirement for prosecutors to justify to the court or anyone else a decision to drop charges.

Also, please explain how a judge can compel the government to take the actions needed to put on a prosecution, such as to present prosecution witnesses, put on evidence, cross-examine defense witnesses, etc.

Also, the situation with General Flynn was different because he had already pleaded guilty , and even then the court was unable to proceed.

Also, this Sassoon ex-prosecutor is not a mind-reader. She has assigned a motive to the DOJ that is not stated in Mr. Bove’s letter. Nowhwere in the letter is any kind of transaction, any kind of quid pro quo, suggested at all.

Dale Edwin Ho (born 1977) is an American lawyer who is serving as a United States district judge of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York.

Prior to becoming a judge, he was the director of the American Civil Liberties Union's voting rights project.

A Biden stooge. This is going to be awesome.

We're going to need TRUCKLOADS of popcorn for this one.

Does the ACLU guy, who believes that every guilty person is innocent, proceed to make sure Biden's political enemy "gets it"?

“Manhattan’s top federal prosecutor, Danielle R. Sassoon, resigned rather than obey an order to seek dismissal of the charges against the mayor.”

No… she was fired. Every one of them completes a letter of resignation upon appointment. It sits there until the the president or AG decides today is the day he is accepting it.

“Judge Ho could say this is a politically motivated decision and it affronts the grand jury process and the integrity of the court,” said Stephen Gillers, a professor of legal ethics at New York University School of Law.

If the bidenstooge DECLINES to dismiss the case, then it's a politically motivated decision, also.

In a cleft stick of their own cutting.

Gee, waiting for it…… somewhere between 14 to 20 State AGs sue over this Trump DOJ action. Interesting that appears to be a common practice in law enforcement of using the small fish as bait to catch the larger fish…. 🤔 wonder what State AG’s have against fishing?

so if some judge is stupid enough to NOT drop charges, and no prosecutor shows up to prosecute, then what?

Who could the judge get to prosecute the case? An AUSA from SDNY? Contract out an attorney?

The prosecutors could appear in court and just say “Adams in innocent of all charges. The only reason we are here is that the judge refused to dismiss the charges.”

The jury will crack up laughing at the judge at that point.

(If the prosecution just announces “present” and presents no arguments the defense will win.)

Over the target.
He knows something. They are afraid he is going to talk.

The entire state of NY seems like it’s corrupt. It just keeps getting worse, and more obvious.
