I think Greenlaw was about the appeals court naming three amici and invited them to brief and argue issues framed by the panel.

Exactly applicable, I believe. Judge Sullivan is asking for amicus briefs, which he had previously reused, in order to frame issues not in dispute.

You probably remember what Justice Blackmun did in Roe, when he decided to rely on his own evidence of viability which was not argued in the trial. In effect he did what Ginsburg just said a judge could not do.

Which is why Ginsburg, who agrees with the result of Roe, has said it was improperly decided.

And, then, the prosecutor’s refusal to obey the judges order and hand over their exculpatory material.

And yet, when Sidney Powell sent him some, he told her to stop doing it.

This judge has no intention of letting the government drop this case. But if he doesn't, the case will get appealed and the government will refuse to prosecute.

If this “judge” is seeking to find Flynn “guilty” of perjury, then doesn’t it follow that the entire lawyer team at DOJ and the investigators at FBI must be charged with suborning perjury?

You would think. I've been saying this same thing. If Flynn's guilty plea was perjury, then the government agents who coerced him into it must be guilty of suborning perjury.

“I believe. Judge Sullivan is asking for amicus briefs, which he had previously reused, in order to frame issues not in dispute.”

I would defiantly join your opinion if that is what happens. I wasnt’ thinking along those lines, but Greenlaw would definitely come into play.

Did you just say that Ginsburg does not agree with how Roe was decided? If so I’m ashamed to admit I didn’t know that!

You don’t have to be a lawyer to be a good reporter. Thanks for the info.

He doesn’t have a case there either, but there is no precedent for what he’s doing, so it isn’t forbidden. One of the reasons there is no precedent is that what he is doing is so outrageous, and the fact pattern so uncommon, that no judge has ever stepped out of bounds in exactly this way.


I doubt Sullivan brainstormed this subterfuge on his own. We are facing a massive criminal conspiracy here and Sullivan is playing for time.

Fake name equals fake lawyer

No always. I”m trying to not allow my personal opinions effect my business. I’m pretty sure you can understand that I’m a conservative. I think you get the message.

Time, headlines, fake news. "They" have been able to pull this sort of crap for years. It's really obvious since Trump became a viable candidate for POTUS.

“It doesn’t mean the judge is free to exercise his caprice.”

I don’t get it. What has the judges Chevy got to do with this?

She agrees with the result, but not Justice Blackmun’s method of deciding it.

Sorry for the mix up. I didn’t even notice your name. I was referring to the author of the piece, Sharp Steelblade, Esq.

It’s my fault for being too subtle, and too curt.

Unless there is a personal apology by Todd, on a Live Meet the Press show, it doesn’t count at all. If not, he should be fired.

Yes, by his illogic, maybe! But I’m not sure you’re under oath, precisely, when you are entering a plea.

“The question I have is why Flynn didn’t enter a Nolo plea.”

No clue, obviously. But he was not getting good counsel, that seems clear. My opinion, from a very cursory knowledge, is that Covington & Whoever (I probably wouldn’t even remember their name except for the media-abused pro-life kids) had a flagrant conflict of interest, and they should have told him they could not represent him.

LoL I think the BNJ is a parody of sorts No one would name there child Sharp and I have never heard of the last name Steelblade I googled the name and all that came up were kitchen utensils

Although I have to say I like some of the articles. They seems to make sense to me as a lawyer. So the writer is either plagiarizing or has some legal research experience or just a lawyer like me who doesn’t want his name associated with what he writes.

She agrees with the result, but not Justice Blackmun’s method of deciding it. (Reference is to Justice Ginsberg said “Roe isn’t really about the woman’s choice, is it?” She continued “It’s about the doctor’s freedom to practice…it wasn’t woman-centered, it was physician-centered.”

I totally agree but I am focused more on how Blackmun sat down in a medical library and then used what he had found to justify his opinion, That is strictly verboten. The appellate courts must only consider what was entered into evidence at the trial level.
