There is that very real possibility but that particular card is usually played early in the proceedings. My understanding of the MTD filed by the government is that they were once again flying the “standing” flag since it had always worked so well before. Judge Carter could still rule as all the other judges have but his declaration to try the case on its merits gives me hope that he won’t do that. I guess we’ll find out on October 5th.
In thge other case on the east coast the judge was reported to be “angry” or “perturbed” at the way the government has handled their side of the case.
All this brings to mind the Randy Weaver trial in which the government did everything it could to hinder discovery by the defense. In the end, the defense didn’t even call a witness, relying instead on the obvious underhandedness of the government lawyers. In that case, Randy Weaver won. We can always hope for lightning to strike twice.
On a connecting issue: Id sure like to have Orly’s ‘Frequent Flyer Miles.’ She’s been back and forth across the country enough to have been in all 57 states.
Shouldn't the fact that it has worked so well before tell you something?

If the case has no standing then it has no merit, does it?
Taitz has twisted that quote over and over again. Judge Carter made that comment after he could have quite properly dismissed the case back July when Taitz hadn't properly served the defense. Judge Carter then said that the case would be decided - not tried - on its merits. That is no guarantee that this will ever get to trial.

According to reports I've read, Judge Carter has found dealing with Taitz to be extremely exasperating.

And as I said earlier, rather than showing up in D.C. for the cameras maybe she should be working on her response to the defense motion to dismiss. It's due a week from tomorrow, and if she misses that deadline then that's it.
