[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some excerpts from an article on the latest developments in this case--Judge Xinis is kicking a**!

Judge Xinis "was holding off at this juncture on deciding whether the government should be held in contempt but would still rule down the road. 
For now, the judge ordered the administration to respond to interrogatories and document production requests. She also ordered the four government officials who signed affidavits in the case to sit for depositions by April 23, giving Abrego Garcia’s lawyers a chance to question key immigration officials in the administration."

More from the judge:

Xinis suggested a fast pace for the depositions and review of discovery — something that would ultimately put her on a path to determining whether to hold anyone from the Trump administration in contempt. “We’re going to move. There will be no tolerance for gamesmanship and grandstanding,” she said. “There are no business hours while we do this — there are going to be two intense weeks of discovery,” she added later.

She is fishing for a contempt charge but not accomplishing anything. Note how she doesn’t outright say what she wants DOJ to do as per “facilitate”. She knows the minute she gets specific DOJ will appeal claiming article 11 powers.[/quote]

Can you explain that for non-lawyers? [/quote]
SCOTUS directed her to specify what she wanted DOJ to do specifically - order said to outline terms for “effectuate.” She still hasn’t said that. Is she demanding Trump provide evidence that he has asked ES for example? DOJ is saying you still need to explain this and she is evading and proceeding to discovery while throwing out contempt trial balloons. It’s a dance she will lose.[/quote]

You better call Saul because you are among the worst internet legal eagles ever.[/quote]

More name calling with zero argument behind it. How boring.[/quote]

What argument?  Xinis is setting up contempt charges.  Which the government deserves, since they are not bothering to bring him back, as they have been ordered.[/quote]

Who cares? We all know she is. There is no way for her to enforce anything because she doesn’t control the DOJ.

This is all going back to SCOTUS once she outlines what expects the government to do, and they appeal claiming it’s an encroachment on article 11 powers. It ends there. SCOTUS isn’t going to dictate foreign relations. At most she gets a PR boost on the left but this issue as a whole isn’t helping the left. [/quote]

Judges can impose civil fines and they can deputies private citizens to enforce civil contempt penalties which can include jail. [/quote]
