According to PACER, a sealed document was provided to the court yesterday. Now I have no idea what the document is or even if it is related to Judge Chutkan's removal from the case.

The timeline is this ...

October 20 ... Fusion GPS files suit to prevent House Intelligence Committee from subpoenaing its bank records.

October 30 ... Judge Chutkin closed the case after Congress and Fusion GPS had announced an agreement narrowing the scope of the subpoena. Judge Chutkin said she'd retain jurisdiction to enforce the agreement.

November 3 ... Fusion GPS asks the Court to reopen the case because the firm says House Intelligence Committee demands are still too broad. Fusion GPS files sealed motion requesting Court allow it to submit a document under seal. Fusion GPS also files sealed motion for Temporary Restraining Order preventing House Intelligence Committee from doing something.

November 5 ... (Sunday) ... News reports suggest that reporters were paid to spread dossier claims.

November 6 ... House Intelligence Committee files a motion under seal to request that the Court allow it to submit a document under seal.

November 8 ... Judge Chutkin grants both sides' motions to submit documents under seal.

November 8 ... Fusion GPS files yet another motion under seal allowing it to submit a document under seal.

November 8 ... House Intelligence Committee files sealed opposition to Fusion GPS's Motion for a Temporary Restraining Order.

November 9 ... Judge Chutkin is removed from case.

November 9 ... Court modifies its November 8 order allow Fusion GPS to file documents under seal. The order allowing the House Intelligence Committee to file documents under seal is not modified. It is unclear if this modification occurred before or after the Judge Chutkin was removed from the case.

Here is screenshot of current history from case docket: https://imgur.com/a/y0wNL

It shows, "Case randomly reassigned to Judge Richard J. Leon. Judge Tanya S. Chutkan is no longer assigned to the case."

Something that was in one of the Congressional or Fusion GPS (Bean LLC) filings appears to have chased her back up the swamp.
