Nothing? Why finalize dates for a trial that’s about to be “case dismissed”??
It seems like I remember him saying the scheduling was confirmed at the same hearing he said he would later issue a ruling on the MTD. Just more housekeeping confirming what was said in court.

I don't like Obama, but I wonder if we are being a little naive by putting too much faith in this judge?
I hope I am wrong, but going by the many, many past dismissed court decisions concerning Obama's eligibility issue, I have the feeling that the judge may be playing with us, and at the last minute, he will find some legal excuse to dismiss this case.
Still, in my opinion, this case is good for anti-Obama voters for this reason: The legal arguments that Obama's U.S. attorneys---who are paid by U.S. taxpayers---are using in this California case to try to get the case dismissed may come back to haunt and backfire on them when Obama the 2012 presidential candidate has his eligibility challenged again and again in court during the upcoming 2012 presidential campaign.
For instance, during the 2012 presidential campaign, Obama's U.S. attorneys cannot argue that it is too late to challenge Obama's eligibility because the 2012 presidential elections are over.
That is, during the 2012 presidential campaign, Obama's U.S. attorneys cannot argue that the Nov. 2012 election was already over, when, of course, it had not yet occurred.
