In @SDNYNews, the Bannon gang just got a restraining order. Locked down a bunch of bank accounts, a boat and a car. Link. December 15, 2020 ~ Tim Hogan ~ Leave a comment 20201215 (64) Restraining OrderDownload
Concede I’m confused about the status of these cases but this appears to be the remand of the Deutsche Bank case from the 2nd Cir. to the SDNY. This should be moot in 37 days and it is not Vance that I think is rolling ahead. December 14, 2020 ~ Tim Hogan ~ Leave a comment 20201214 (71) Remand from 2nd CirDownload
Link to district judge Brett H. Ludwig’s decision and order in Milwaukee election challenge. Plus the judgment: PURSUANT TO THE COURT’S ORDER, the action is DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE and the plaintiff shall recover nothing on the complaint. :) December 12, 2020 ~ Tim Hogan ~ Leave a comment 202011212 (134) Decision and OrderDownload 202011212 (135) JudgmentDownload
On Thomas’ dissent joined by Alito: Here’s the dissent from January cited. IMO it’s a reasonable academic dispute but advances form over substance. To not simply deny it would encourage frivolous filings. Paxton was not the State. He is a public official under investigation trolling for an illegal pardon as a bribe. Failure to recognize that makes Thomas and Alito look like conspirators. December 11, 2020 ~ Tim Hogan ~ Leave a comment 150orig_3e04Download
Trump loses in SCOTUS on his attempt to overturn the election. Thomas and Alito think it is not discretionary but would not grant any other relief. Link. December 11, 2020 ~ Tim Hogan ~ Leave a comment 121120zr_p860Download
Trump’s personal lawyer Mark Kasowitz demands US district court stay the Carrol rape/defamation case pending the appeal. I expect it to be denied. Also, I don’t think he’s entered a formal appearance. Some judges hate that. @maddow @lawrence December 10, 2020December 10, 2020 ~ Tim Hogan ~ Leave a comment 20201210 (47) Kaz letterDownload

Michigan files its opposition to the Texas AG Paxton’s request to exercise original jurisdiction in #SCOTUS. It’s now 3:00 pm. Wonder if Trump’s pal Putin doing a DOS attack? December 10, 2020December 10, 2020 ~ Tim Hogan ~ Leave a comment 20201210145404465_22O155 Texas MI BIO 12-10Download

Here is the stipulation of facts in the Wisconsin Election challenge case that is on You Tube. Clear to me the entire Postal Service shutdown was meant to steal the election. But states prevented it. https://youtu.be/aKcxHTr_Xwo December 10, 2020 ~ Tim Hogan ~ Leave a comment 127Download 127-1Download 127-2Download
