The is no SC statute, if you mean special counsel. It is entirely within rules set by the DOJ unto itself. The DOJ has many ‘task forces’ that employ people from outside the DOJ using the same kind of rules.
Even should a court find merit in Manafort’s arguments, his case could just be handed off to a normal US Attorney.
Who are we kidding? This is not going to end until someone puts a shovel into Mueller’s head.
I’m serious when I say this and not trying to fence you in in any way, but what clues is this thread missing?
Thank you for the information. Not being a lawyer, I get confused, so I asked for clarification, and I appreciate that which I receive!
Thanks for the clarification. I’m an engineer, as opposed to a lawyer.
Would the overly broad charter for the special council risk invalidating the investigation, if it is deemed by the courts to be illegally broad?
It is possible to invalidate the Special Counsel. First someone needs to file a suit. Manafort is probably the best suited for this. My personnal take is that the phony FISA Warrants will be the basis to take out everything . Problem is no one is acting on this, yet. The FISA Warrants themselves could possibly be Fruit of the Poisonous Tree.
