Gateway Pundit is calling this a win for Flynn, because it is a refusal of mandamus, which Sullivan wanted, so he could pick another judge to continue Flynn’s trial. So the appeals court sent it back to Sullivan to CLOSE the case. With dispatch. Meaning asap.
Any legal beagles out there know if the above is correct?
See post 65.
Pretty confusing IMHO. Here is the text of Sidney's Tweet:
1h: "The En Banc D.C. Circuit has denied the writ of mandamus requested by @GenFlynn -- split as expected along lines evident from the tone and tenor of the judges at oral argument. The opinion and dissents are here. https://sidneypowell.com/the-michael-t-flynn-case
It is a disturbing blow to the #RuleOfLaw"
