Translation of the court orders:

Berg and Hemenway filed appeal briefs (appealing from the district court's dismissl of their lawsuit) which were longer than the rules allow. The Court of Appeals refused to take them; the appeal process now has to start over and they have to file shorter briefs. The defendants will then respond to those new briefs and the plaintiffs will have to file new reply briefs.

In the meantime, Hemenway filed a motion for the court to consider additional evidence (including Orly Taitz's alleged Kenyan birth certificate). Berg said he didn't want that additional evidence considered and that it should be considered to have been filed only by Hemenway. The defendants (Obama and Biden) didn't respond to the motion to consider additional evidence, but the Court gave them further time to respond.

There does not seem to be anything in the record indicating that Hemenway's brief was either longer than the rules allow or that it was rejected. It is on the docket as having been filed.

Nor does it appear that Joyce or Berg ever filed an opening brief but rather a motion to be allowed to file one late, which would now seem to be moot.

You always seem to more interesting in attacking the filings than in accuracy. To whom do you report on your efforts.

Where do you find Berg in this? His name appears NOWHERE in the docket. It may be that this new attorney, Larry Joyce, is his surrogate, but Berg’s name doesn’t appear anywhere in the docket or the briefs that were filed.
