[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]En Banc panel reject Flynn's motion 8-2 and remands to Judge Sullivan. the opinion is a full repudiation of Barr and Powell.

Nice to see SOMETHING normal happening in our country right now.[/quote]

All stacked with Obiden appointees.  SCOTUS will reject this ruling[/quote]

I don't think you understand the composition of the the Appeals Court if that is your statement. And it is pretty rich given how many appointees of Obama's were shelved by McConnell.

The ruling is rooted in law, try reading it.[/quote]

I don't think you understand criminal law as it relates to the appeals court if that is your state,ent.  And it's pretty thin given this is the first criminal case ever in the history of our republic where the prosecutor dropped the case due to the hiding of brady material.. [/quote]
DP here.  You definitely did not understand the ruling.  This was not a decision on merit.  The court did not rule on whether the prosecution was right to drop the case.  It ruled that Judge Sullivan can ask for a hearing where they have to explain their decision.  The prosecution's reasoning may be perfect.  But the judge does get to hear about it.  [/quote]

Will Sullivan demand why the doj and Covington Burling withheld Brady evidence as well?[/quote]
Maybe.  I think the legally important is why Flynn pled guilty if he thought he wasn't.  If they can show that he was coerced, then he may go free.  I am not saying they can or can't do it, just that I think that's what the judge wants to know.  [/quote]

He pled to protect his son.  Andrew Weissman told Flynn his son didn't register his foreign lobbying efforts. Sick DOJ.[/quote]

If this upsets you, I have bad news. DOJ does this and much worse on a regular basis. So do local prosecutors.

I don't give a crap about Michael Flynn, and I don't think DOJ did anything wrong in prosecuting him under the standard that many others have been prosecuted. If you don't like that he was charged for lying to the FBI, ask your representatives to change the law - 18 USC 1001. But please spare me about how unfair Flynn's prosecution was. They use this statute all the time.[/quote]
