Any idea what the makeup of the whole panel is?

The DC Circuit is far left. Flynn was lucky to get a favorable 3 judge panel, but if the case is reviewed en banc, they will reverse the panel. There is no other reason to rehear it. We have watched this play out several times in the 9th circus. Get a big decision from a panel only to see it reversed by the full court.

***Michael Flynn Judge Asks Full D.C. Circuit to Rehear His Case Against Immediate Dismissal of Prosecution***

This en banc late delay was predicted by me and others. More and more people realize that this is a ploy to delay this decision until the election. Obviously the DS is scared blood white of Gen. Flynn and hope to fandangle the election to shut out Prez Trump and rid themselves of the Flynn threat -- AND the Barr / Durham threat.

American justice hangs in the balance; we have already seen the justice in store for us under Biden with Kavanaugh and Jussie Smollett. God save us!

Yep. They self-proclaim to be the law. You noted the constitution. The judges redefine it.

Some Freepers have proposed letting the judicial process run its course, but the process has been corrupted. Trump may have to pardon Flynn to keep Sullivan from harassing him any longer.

Methinks the term “hanging judge” needs to be redefined.

So what can the judiciary do to the DoJ if Sullivan “wins” and they refuse to continue prosecuting the case? Throw them in jail for contempt of court? That would not be a wise move...

Trump, the DOJ and Trump's team are going to have to start lighting up the Democrats with artillery barrages of accusations and prosecutions very soon.

I realize that they're probably holding back as long as possible to prevent the Media from regrouping and organizing a coherent response before November.

It's a matter of timing...

If this has not been settled with a dismissal by election day, win or lose President Trump will pardon Flynn the day after the November election. Flynn has been put through hell by the deep state (i.e. the swamp or the sewer, take your pick) and deserves his freedom.

Dems have the majority on that particular appellate court. That is the reason Dem Sullivan is making the en banc review request. He figures it will be decided along political lines if they do review it. I can/t say I disagree with him.

Stall stall stall to keep Flynn quiet until the election can be stolen in November. Then the criminals complicit in the coup against Trump will get off Scott free and this entire episode of the insider attack against our Constitution will go into the dust bin of history.

I try to listen to Flynn’s lawyer about these matters. I thought I heard her say that Sullivan could not ask for a hearing by all the judges, but the entire court could decide by themselves to hear the case. Lawyers?

If the appellate court sides with Flynn, they are similar dirtbags like Sullivan and it should be expedited to SCOTUS. Afer some of their recent decisions though, I don’t have so much faith in Gorsuch, and of course Roberts is unreliable.

I wonder if there is anything the DoJ can do. They dropped the charaged. Sullivan has precent all against him in continuing the case. Judges are not prosecutors.

At what point does Flynn and Powell say “We’re not going to play this game anymore. Rule what you want or not, it doesn’t matter.” Then go home.

That’s interesting. I did read that Flynn is not under a gag order.
