You don't have the faintest clue how federal court works, do you? This is just an entry into the official record regarding housekeeping issues that were decided on Monday morning. If Keyes had a competent attorney who had actual trial experience, he would know that.
In any event, being the magnanimous person that I am, when Carter finally issues his decision on MTD, I won't say, "I told you so".
This is an honest question, and I’m not claiming to know ANYTHING about legal matters, so please don’t be condescending. I think what most people are wondering is why the judge would make the trial dates “final”, instead of leaving them “tentative”, if he is still undecided on the motion to dismiss. Perhaps you can explain the legal reason for this entry into the record in a way that will answer this question for people.
yep, that is the way I read this. another normal message that was blown out of proportion.
