"Over the past many months it’s been so frustrating seeing banner headlines proclaiming: Judge sets trial! When that was merely an administrative action. Or an attorney running around saying she’d be deposing Obama in 30 days. All of it nonsense. (I am STILL getting the occasional email forward that there’s a trial later this month in CA)."

Yes. Unfortunately, the work of an inexperienced lawyer...who definitely has a "big heart", but is just too green with the whole process.
