My guess is that Barry’s attorney will walk into the Thurs hearing with the motion to quash in his hand. They can probably file it with the clerk before the hearing starts. If the judge grants the motion Barry is off the hook. He does not have to appear.
But filing on the morning of the hearing doesn’t afford the plaintiff(s) time to file their objections, so the judge can’t decide then and there. I read elsewhere on this thread that in issuing the order denying the motion to quash, the judge told Obama’s attorney to file any reconsideration motion by Monday, and that wasn’t done.
