So far this judge has not done anything legally unsound or ethically wrong.

However it's clear that she's falling over herself to signal to Trump and the rabid fan base that *she's a friend* and does not want death threats! I think this is the motivation of many people who are drawn into the Scylla and Charybdis of Trump's criminal wrongdoings.

In any case, all her actions are moot and she knows it well: it's all just a CYA vis-a-vis a deranged Trumper showing up at her house and shooting her.

Announcing her intent to rule for a party, and issuing the order to produce a more detailed inventory that Trump requested, before the other had even been served (much less responded), is legally and ethically dubious.  If she wanted to bend over backward, she could have just asked for DOJ to respond to the motion.  There was no need for the additional orders or announcing her intent.     [/quote]

Judges routinely issue TROs on an ex parte basis all the time. Issues also arise in the course of arguing a motion which lead to the judge announcing a preliminary intention of how she will rule but inviting additional briefing from the litigants.

The chef’s kiss in this morning’s DOJ filing is telling Judge Cannon that they explicitly complied with what Judge Reinhart had authorized in issuing the warrant. Tantamount to a checkmate. [/quote]

Where is the TRO motion?  I can't find it on the docket.[/quote]

Were you expecting that the attorneys adhered to the requirements of the local rules? They couldn’t even be bothered to prepare a summons of file a proper complaint invoking the court’s subject matter jurisdiction over a “miscellaneous” proceeding. [/quote]

Exactly, so arguments about TROs are irrelevant.  A TRO motion has specific requirements because it is ex parte, including an affidavit showing irreparable harm (and judge has to find that) as well as reasonable efforts to notify the defendant.  Trump could not possibly meet these requirement after waiting two weeks after the search to do anything at all, and they didn't even try.  A TRO also usually requires posting a bond.[/quote]
