George Bush Jr. Appointed Judge Who Enforced Court’s Ruling on Removing 10 Commandments from Alabama Courthouse Denies Lin Wood Suit in Georgia
Judge William Pryor declined today Lin Wood’s appeal and request to “enjoin certification of the general election results [in Georgia], to secure a new recount under different rules, and to establish new rules for an upcoming runoff election”.
Judge Pryor for the 11th Circuit is famous for enforcing a radical judge’s ruling to remove the 10 commandments from a court house in Alabama. A now well-known local judge refused to enforce the ruling and for that he was removed from the bench:
- Alabama’s judicial ethics panel removed Chief Justice Roy Moore from office Thursday for defying a federal judge’s order to move a Ten Commandments monument from the state Supreme Court building.
- The nine-member Court of the Judiciary issued its unanimous decision after a one-day trial Wednesday.
Today Judge Pryor, who was appointed by the younger Bush, refused Lin Wood’s appeal in Georgia:
This appeal requires us to decide whether we have jurisdiction over an appeal from the denial of a request for emergency relief in a post-election lawsuit. Ten days after the presidential election, L. Lin Wood Jr., a Georgia voter, sued state election officials to enjoin certification of the general election results, to secure a new recount under different rules, and to establish new rules for an upcoming runoff election. Wood alleged that the extant absentee-ballot and recount procedures violated Georgia law and, as a result, his federal constitutional rights. After Wood moved for emergency relief, the district court denied his motion. We agree with the district court that Wood lacks standing to sue because he fails to allege a particularized injury. And because Georgia has already certified its election results and its slate of presidential electors, Wood’s requests for emergency relief are moot to the extent they concern the 2020 election. The Constitution makes clear that federal courts are courts of limited jurisdiction, U.S. Const. art. III; we may not entertain post-election contests about garden-variety issues of vote counting and misconduct that may properly be filed in state courts. We affirm.
