No! Pardons overrule all court orders.

No, the dismissal was premised on the pardon.

I suppose it does, technically. A pardon excuses a conviction. No conviction, nothing to pardon over.

Had Sullivan continued his kangaroo court and convicted Flynn, the conviction would have automatically been set aside thanks to the pardon.
