“The Court also determines that finalization of a trial date at this juncture—before resolution of the myriad & interconnected pre-trial & #CIPA issues remaining & forthcoming—would be imprudent & inconsistent w/the Court’s duty to fully & fairly consider the various pending pre-trial motions before the Court, critical CIPA issues, & additional pretrial & trial preparations necessary to present this case to a jury” #AileenCannon wrote.
Ridiculous that #AileenCannon says that there are "novel & difficult" #CIPA issues when her delays have meant the CIPA issues have barely been considered by the court. The only section of CIPA she has considered was §4, which is straightforward.
US District Judge #AileenCannon’s ultimatum Mon night came as a surprise twist in what could have been a simple order; one merely asking federal prosecutors & Trump’s lawyers for proposed #JuryInstructions at the upcoming #trial.
To be clear, the Cannon formula is hers alone (& is absolute bunk).
were one to actually use it IRL, there would be no frickin reason for her order at all & she should dismiss the case.
In the SDFL espionage case against the @GOP front-runner, On Sep 14, the Govt filed #CIPA Section 10 notice with CIPA officer. This filing puts redacted versions on the public system for attorneys and court staff who are not fully cleared. Link
Trump Judge Aileen Cannon delays Trumps trial from this August to May 20, 2024.
There is No other case where a Court gave the parties more than 5 weeks to resolve disputes on a protective order for classified info (Section 3 Motion). Normally takes a few days/one week.
Last week, I would have ordered the parties into a conference room and told them to hash out the protective order and come back later that day.
She gave him 9 MONTHS
An Outrageously prejudiced Judge Cannon clearly rules in favor of a seditionist & traitor; - why?
The elephant in the room no one is acknowledging: Aileen Cannon is beholden to the Federalist Society.
If the Federalist Society sees that Trump so far is the quickest route toward their ultimate goal of changing the way America is governed— they’re going to protect that.
3/ JUST IN: DOJ opposes a delay in Friday’s pretrial hearing in the Trump documents case. Trump’s codefendant Walt Nauta requested a delay because his attorney - Stan Woodward - is in trial this week in DC.
This is a delay tactic and the first real test for the #Court to keep the case on schedule. The Court scheduled the CIPA hearing on June 26, but counsel waited two weeks to object to the date. Counsel also does not need a clearance to participate in a #CIPA Section 2 conference.
I found this discussion useful with regard to how much of the #classified info can be declassified enough to show a jury, and which charges require the jury to know the detail, of any, with regard to the #Trump#indictment and #CIPA.
