Just came across wires.... recount stopped by state appeals court!
The federal judge ordered the two day delay between board ruling and appeal of board ruling, not apply. He assumed the recount would be ordered, so just front-loaded two days to it. The state court heard the appeal from the decision of the election board, and ruled “no recount.” Stein can take that back to the federal judge if she wants. She never asked the fedetral judge for the recount (that was already “in the works” pending appeal), she just asked for the two days.
Confusion...
now they’re saying that this order is to be held in abeyance??
Suspended their own order to stop the recount??
I’m so totally confused. We need a concrete explanation on what is happening.

3-judge panel also issued an order making this order held in abeyance (suspended)
No stories up yet but here are reporter;s tweets.
Deep links might be protected. So goes the concern.
She can will also appeal to the Michigan SC no doubt.
All I can say, is thank God Michigan has already certified. PA hasn’t yet, and who knows when they will.
...Mich. Court of Appeals decision would override the 6th Circuit, right..
No.
This is a ruling by the state court of appeals.
They order state election canvassing board to deny Stein request.
But their order is hel in abeyance.
So am I......
No chance of overturning and Stein not an aggrieved party.
A district judge (obama appointment) in the Federal circuit felt that that the MI courts' ruling on the matter might come to late for a recount to succeed.
Pending the MI court decision, he ordered the recount to begin.
The US appeals court above him just ruled that he did NOT exceed his authority in ordering the recount to start, pending the MI courts decision.
The US appeals court told him if the MI court ruled, they expected him to dissolve his order, or to act accordingly.
Now the MI appeals court has ordered the recount stopped.
Most likely, the district judge will not dissolve his order until an appeal to the MI Supreme Court is handed down.

They might be holding the order until the a-hole judge from the other night rescinds his order... keep them in good graces of federal court?
You found it. I was about to post the same link.
The recount must not have included would-be votes using the provisional ballot affidavit when the voter(s) did not provide adequate ID within the 10 days they were given.

Actually, the 6th Circuit appeal left open the door for the Michigan Court of appeals to say the recount shouldn’t have happened in the first place, and then the parties can re-litigate to the federal appeals court. Note the initial order was the recount to start immediately instead of waiting 2 days for Trump to appeal, but that ruling did not look at the merits of the recount.
Good! Enough of this bullshit! If the lib/commies persist in acting as whiny, spoiled, and sociopathic criminals, then they may need something akin to a spanking. As I do not want to use my hand or a panel on people who look like adults, I had something fiercer in mind.
Why wouldn’t he dissolve his order thereby allowing appeals court denial of Stein to go into effect?? Why would he wait until an appeal to the state Supreme Court?
