re: #54 lawhawk
Reminder: Judge Loose Cannon in FL is doing all the things that right wingers attach to Judge Juan Merchan in NY.
She’s putting her thumbs on the scales of justice to buy time for Trump and to deny a speedy trial, all while Judge Merchan is keeping a tight rein on Trump’s misconduct.
Denying the motion and laying into the gov’t for a conferral issue is some shit. I’ve had judges posture as if conferrals are a huge deal; emails aren’t sufficient; etc. etc., but have never really had a judge follow through—judges usually afford some deference to counsel who typically understand if conferral will actually be a worthwhile exercise.
