Letitia James receives SUBPOENA from the DOJ for violating President Trumps' civil rights.

I linked the statements.
You linked an article that proved your claim was wrong. It said she “suggested” he was a principle officer. If she ruled that, they wouldn’t say suggested. You should go to the actual case anyway.
Of course, "going forward". Thats very convenient
That’s how precedent works.
Bondi appointed him
Is Bondi unaware of the ruling or is Trump unaware of Bondi’s illegal actions? It doesn’t change anything.

Read post 711. And, yes, she did suggest he was a principle officer, and that idea was part of her ruling.

That’s how precedent works.

If you all had rejected smiths appointment, that would have been precedent too..

Just saying it wasn't trump himself who took the action

It wasn’t part of the reasoning. She left that to superior courts if necessary. She made no determination one way or another.

The vast bulk of the ruling details how the AG has no authority to appoint an inferior officer either.

So you are saying Jack Smith was illegally appointed by Merritless Gestapoland.

Got it.

Judge Cannon argued that the Attorney General, Merrick Garland, lacked the constitutional authority to appoint a prosecutor like Jack Smith who wasn't subject to Senate confirmation,



She dismissed it because smith would have needed senate confirmation. Why? Because superior officers require senate confirmation.

Agreed. Because the AG has no legal authority to appoint inferior officers. Therefore, he could only be a superior officer.

Thats not what the cotus says
 
Why would a judge rule they have authority? Cannon didn’t see any authority.
Because every judge rules on their own interpretation of the law. Liberal judges will tend to see the law one way or another and conservative judges see it another. Many judges and constitutional lawyers believe that Cannon’s ruling is unconstitutional based on the laws Congress set forth to appoint special prosecutors. Since there has been no appeal, her ruling in that case stands. Another judge could see it differently.

So there’s no actual rules. It’s all just judicial Calvin ball.

There are rules and precedents, the precedent was that these types of special prosecutors had constitutional authority as inferior officers. What the lawyers argued with Cannon was that Smith was given primary authority and she didn’t decide on that but decided that he had neither inferior or primary authority. There are previous rulings on this matter. So when a special prosecutor is appointed it will be challenged in the courts and it will be decided whether it’s constitutional or not, on a case by case basis.
 
I’m the only one here that actually read the decision. You keep posting articles that prove your own point incorrect.

Obviously not. How many times do I have to post articles that state she made her decision based on smith not being confirmed by the senate....because his position would have needed to have been confirmed, due to him being a superior officer.

None of your articles say she made a finding that he’s a superior officer.

So you can post as many articles as you want, they don’t say what you claim.

From the actual decision:
1755613636643.webp


The Court elects to leave the matter for future review indicates she did not make a ruling on this basis.
 
What did you truncate? "Of course, however..."
It goes on to say that if the appeals court disagrees with her view on the statutory language for appointing an inferior officer, it could still be overturned if the court determines he was a principal officer, which is obvious.
