It does seem that way. If he does not dissolve the order then the Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit likely will order him to. State law determines whether a recount occurs.
Wow - Stein’s lawyer admits that Stein is not an “aggrieved party”. How can the judge possible rule in their favor?
The Appeals Court has already clearly forbade him from going the route of disputing the state’s law.
He has to find something else.
Something the Appeals Court will shoot down, but not be offended by.
After all, he looks the fool for causing a pointless recount that has to be ended without completion.
Whether the recount CONTINUES you mean.
