The judge did it like the one in Michigan did late on a Friday afternoon to deliberately delay the appeals process so the marriage licenses could be issued in the meantime.

A federal judge in Utah dropped a ruling down right before the Christmas season to achieve similar ends.

There is a pattern to these judicial rulings that smacks of some sort of dare I say it “conspiracy”.

This is a job for investigative journalism if there is any real investigative journalism left out there that isn’t politicized.

This is the point where the judge jumps from having a legal/judicial lapse straight into having a massive ethical one.

The proper thing to do would be to issue the ruling, then immediately enjoin it until the appeals process runs its course. By doing what he did the judge brought about a political outcome, not a legal one.
