Judge Cannon has blown it.

MAGA simply can't argue this at all

Smith is not allowing a PRA dismissal later on in the trial by making her decide now.

Exactly. And she is well aware that he will go over her head on it, if necessary.

But as others have pointed out, Trump's real enemy may only be time. And the unnecessary delays brought about by Cannon (At the expense of her reputation. A common theme, in Trumplandia) may be all that is needed.

 

[Seymour Flops]

Smith is not allowing a PRA dismissal later on in the trial by making her decide now. The Appellate Court will uphold him and threaten her with recusal.

How can he make her? What law or precedent will the appellate court use to make her decide now?

 

[WorldWatcher]

How can he make her? What law or precedent will the appellate court use to make her decide now?

It’s called a Writ of Mandamus where a court orders an official, or a superior court orders and inferior court to take a certain action.

If challenged and the 11th Circuit issues such an order, there is now one of two scenarios:

#1 She refuses, which is then justification for the Circuit to remove her from the case.

#2A She rules according to the law and precedent and the case continues.

#2B She rules and makes an erroneous ruling on the law. Now the prosecution has grounds to file a pre-trial interlockery appeal to resolve the issue before trial.

Trump picked Aileen Cannon as a judge for a district court in Florida that covers Mara Lago,

And swore her in on Nov 20th 2021, EDIT.....after he lost the election.

I believe the court she serves in her district has ONLY ONE JUDGE, and no other judge, so Trump would be guaranteed to get her if anyone brought any criminal case against him to the district near Mara Lago...IF that ft pierce court is used.

Trump was charged in a Miami court, but he requested it be moved to her court, knowing it was going to be her, as his judge.... There is definitely some funny business going on with her....

You're saying President Trump is a genius, I agree.

 

[Billiejeens]

What's her experience?

What qualifies her?

Her confirmation.

 

[Billiejeens]

Not really. Cannon is the only judge we see talking about that had to be reversed upon appeal. Epically too.

Not reversed more than Smith, though.

 

[Marener]

Not reversed more than Smith, though.

She has never dealt with a difficult case before. The first time she does, she screwed it up royally.

Poor baby
Cry harder.

 

[Marener]

Poor baby
Cry harder.

The 11th circuit smack down of Cannon speaks for itself.

 

[Billiejeens]

You have stupid interpretations.

 

[Marener]

You have stupid interpretations.

Okay dude. Whatever.

 

[MarcATL]

Her confirmation.

That's not experience.

Try again chump.

 

[rampart]

Agreed....
She is neither wet nor inexperienced. Perhaps she sees this for the political witch hunt that it really is.

trump is not accused of witchcraft, but of rather more mundane crimes.

 

[justoffal]

trump is not accused of witchcraft, but of rather more mundane crimes.

Sure..... He is guilty of most common offenses known to the political world.
It's a genie they really don't want to let out of the bottle. This is a another one of those Harry Reid moments.

 

[Care4all]

Agreed....

If she sees it that way, then her duty, as a judge over the case, is to recuse herself.... imo.... and step aside to let a neutral judge, with no appearance of taking sides, take over...

 

[justoffal]

Nah..... You equate certain conviction with the only correct path. You need to be recused from being an observer. Let's face it anything less than a conviction is going to make you scream Injustice.

 

[j-mac]

True, but he will have to make the claim prior to trial under reciprocal discovery. Witness list, evidence to be presented, that sort of thing.

If he doesn't, and fails to make the claim to the trial court, then he forgoes that avenue for appeal. He can't appeal for known information that he choose not to present.

I’m sure his lawyers are on top of it…

Don’t you mean a more liberal judge? That’s what you want.

 

[hadit]

That’s not Cannon.

You weren't supposed to notice that.
