That’s not dismissing, is it? She just says, “at this point.”

Yes.

Judges often look for the latest possible "off ramp" before making a controversial decision. They don't want to be too premature in making a ruling when there are still other things that can happen before the ruling becomes the last resort.

An exception would be when the motion is so clear-cut and decisive that the ruling makes sense at that moment, such as a tainted warrant or falsified evidence or obvious prosecutorial misconduct or witness/jury tampering where a mistrial is called for.

The judge in the E Jean case made his summary judgements at the appropriate time?
