Trump’s travel ban to be argued Tuesday in S.F. federal court

Trump administration lawyers tried Monday to persuade a federal appeals court to reinstate the president’s ban on travel to the United States from seven Muslim-majority nations and his suspension of all refugee admissions — a long shot at best, according to legal analysts.

After receiving written arguments from both sides, the Ninth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco scheduled a hearing for Tuesday afternoon on whether to uphold or overturn a ruling by a federal judge in Seattle on Friday that suspended Trump’s Jan. 27 executive order.

A final decision on the legality of the order is probably months away, if not longer, and will likely be made by the U.S. Supreme Court. But in the short run, according to legal scholars consulted Monday, its fate depends on judges’ assessment of whether enforcement or non-enforcement will cause hardship to the nation, and the administration hasn’t made much of a case so far.

The courts are out of control. The only thing they should ask themselves is whether or not President Trump acted within his authority.

(Answer: Yes.)

“Boy that is a load of crap in that fake news article.” - I forgot to add the (Barf Alert) qualifier. Figured it’s good to peek behind enemy lines at times.

They assume without a shred of evidence, Trump has no case to present.

No bias there.

Given the composition of the panel on the liberal-dominated 9 Circus, this battle looks headed to the Supreme Court.

Yes if they ignore case law. Case law wins this one.

BY PHONE?! Some Seattle wank strikes the POTUS’ authority and the one-hour discussion is to be BY PHONE?!

It means they’ve already capitulated.

Precedent and case law didn’t deter Judge Robart.

Liberal activist judges make up the law as they go along.

I wouldn’t be surprised if the District Court’s stay is upheld.

And we all know what that means. With the Supremes divided 4/4 the Ninth Circus decision will stand. Trump loses, barring some sort of Divine intervention.

You know Judge Gorsuch’s confirmation is critical.

This is exactly the kind of judicial overreach he warned against.

Ro art is an ______ who has little if any judicial background He’s another community organizer type lawyer aka obama

The two democrats are moderate.
First was appointed by Carter
Michelle actually clerked for Sandra Day Oconnor. And clerked in DC court
The moderate republican, Cilfton, was appointed by W Has Ivey league education

They all have a history of following law

I think so too. The 9th Kangaroo court will uphold it. It will be upheld, and it will have to go to SCOTUS.

We submitted this before the super bowl began

The phone call is just to answer questions the court might have and for us to give a synopsis of our paper work

Here is our paper work

http://cdn.ca9.uscourts.gov/datastore/general/2017/02/04/17-35105%20motion.pdf

It should be on here somewhere. Maybe at the end.
The first page has our team

Then their attorneys

On page 73 iirc begins exhibit E. The transcript of ROBART case. EASY reading. And a real laugh for anyone who know how a court room is suppose to be handled.
