Wow. Hitting back pretty hard. Let's see how far it goes with this (clearly) party hack of a judge. Perhaps this response will serve well at the next level...that is, the appeals court (or possibly SCOTUS). Emphasis added.

Now if they can get enough similar complainants and a compliant judge, they might get this certified as a class action matter. You would have to beat the trial attorneys off with a stick if you could get a deep pocket like the DNC or the Federal Government itself named as conspiratory defendants. Particularly with the number of victims of every action he has taken since taking office.

I predicted this lawyer would hammer this Moonbat judge with everything. After all, this wackjob in the black robe is going after him.

I wonder if a few heads over at the DNC, House and Senate are quietly saying to one another: “He’s so incompetent that this may solve the problem.”

They all know, deep down, that there is a problem here. Perhaps there will be a ‘tipping point’ that will compel some of them to actually begin to take (some kind of) action and uphold their oaths to our Constitution. Time will tell...hopefully sooner rather than latter.

I read on another thread that Judge Robertson is a US Naval Academy Graduate and a Rhodes Scholar. Clearly a case of too much education.

Disgusting.

If the Court persists in pressing Rule 11 procedures against Hemenway, then Hemenway should be allowed all of the discovery pertinent to the procedures as Court precedents have permitted in the past.

Your comments from another thread which are relevant for this one:

-------------

"I think the judge may have given this attorney a huge opening. If the judge is saying that the attorney brought a frivolous lawsuit and is threatening sanctions, the very existence of such a threat may just possibly give the attorney standing to subpoena Obama’s records.

Far more likely than that very remote possibility, though, is that the demand for sanctions will be dropped so that the matter is no longer a “live” issue.

That's my prediction - I would be surprised if sanctions are imposed. If they are, then the judge has done the movement to unseal Obama’s records a huge favor. "

-----------------------

Go after him judge I dare you.

Ok, I really appreciate the time you took to post this and it is a subject in which I have great interest.

But I am not a lawyer and trying to read that kinda made my eyes roll in the back of my head. :( Sorry.

Is it possible that you could tell me what it means in a sort of Cliff notes version.

Sorry and thank you.

If so, it’s be behind the scenes, so publicly they could cry and rend clothes and issues statements of support for Obama, and whine “what could we do? Our hands are tied by that dratted Constitution! It’s those Republican’s fault!!!”, and once the cameras are off, sip Champagne at aleviating themselves of a problem and again blaming the Right.

Paragraph 63 is very important. If the judge is saying the lawsuit is frivolous and that the attorney and client should be sanctioned, then it opens the door to them showing just WHY it’s not frivolous. It’s not altogether dissimilar from accusing someone of libel - the accused then gets a chance to defend himself, truth being a defense.

Could the judge be opening the door to a fuller airing of this issue without knowing it?

I predict this Rule 11 hearing will go away quickly. If not, then again the door is opened a little more.

If sanctions are applied without giving the parties a chance to defend themselves, then we have indeed gone beyond the looking glass.

It just creates another problem called “The Obama Principle” which is a level of incompetency that only a black man is allowed to rise to in an insane politically correct world. This guy would need a teleprompter to place a coherent order at McDonalds.

For sure, IMO. An interesting turn of events ... perhaps.

Given Obama’s attitude thus far, part of me wonders whether he has the proof but his arrogance and narcissistic behavior disorder are leading him to refuse just for the sake of refusing.

“subpoena Obama’s records”
Yep.
One subpoena duces tecum and Team Obama dips into the Clinton file, `99; e.g. “Uh, Soldiers & Sailors Relief Act? Naahh... executive privilege—might fly. `No recollection’. Sure. No `cognizable legal authority’. Worked for Gore!” Etc.
If his authentic, bona fide birth certificate is ever produced, one of two things happens: the matter is dropped or he’s removed from office.
Like Hume’s explanation of `miracles’, considering the strenuous efforts of the One to protect his `lock-box’, which result do you think is more likely?
