Well the first appeal is an appeal of right and so the court- whichever is the next step in the process - has to accept it. They can rule against, but they have to take and hear the case.
Don’t be foolish. Imagine if Chauvin’s lawyer had filed this motion BEFORE the revelation about the BLM juror had come out.
No surprise, he’ll be rightfully convicted again, better if honest and fair justice.
Alternates do not go in for deliberation nor do they have a vote.
According to the court decision the death penalty was tossed because the trial judge had excluded jurors who were against the death penalty.
so with the Chauvin trial, the whole case can be overturned because the juror lied..will it happen, who knows
You said it. Can if be overturned? Perhaps. Will it be overturned? Chances are still slim
True.
I dont know if they can petition the court to do this but if they can, they should request the trial judge to bring charges of perjury against that juror.
Not so sure about that. It could’ve easily been blamed on Maxine waters.
And maybe got some of them to shut the heck up.
Good to see that Chauvin’s lawyer is putting the Democrat Judge on the hot seat immediately.
I’m hoping that the Judge is embarrassed enough by this BLM ahole that he brings the hammer down.
I really think the left wants another trial, too. They put a lot of effort into making Floyd a hero martyr - and they'd love to do it all over again next year.
Never let a crisis go to waste, right?
If they can get jurors to obey them through threats, why not voters? A new trial would be a ready-made campaign issue.
Cahill won’t bring the hammer down. He has feet of clay and proved it time and time again during the trial. BUT there’s a chance, maybe a slim one but a chance nonetheless, that at some appellate level this travesty of a case comes before some judge(s) with integrity and then all bets are off.
“BURN THIS MOFO DOWN NOW!”
What judge will allow this to be heard?
And be the cause of nation if not world wide riots?
The Supreme Court has zero jurisdiction over this case. Not that it would matter anyway...
p
Never happen.There’s not a judge in the country that wants firebombs coming through his/her living room window at 2AM.
>>As expected<<
Right? This was a BS trial.
Exactly so how would the alternate know?
