Seymour Flops, Nathan Wade has resigned from the case. Thus, Wade & Willis have entirely complied with Judge McAfee's decision regarding their relationship to the case against Trump and his seven codefendants. They all remain indicted for the criminal act of interfering with Georgia's 2020 general election that chose Georgia's representatives to the Electoral College.
Unfortunately, McAfee also issued a “certificate of immediate review,” which allows Trump or any of his other seven minions (if they wish), to appeal his ruling in a Georgia appellate court before their trial begins. (I expect they'll run out some of the clock before they file their appeal. The appeal is not likely to change anything other than serving Trump's purpose of further delaying his day in court. (The Appellate court cannot respond to an appeal until that appeal is filed with the court).
The appellate court can choose to set a date to hear arguments of appeal, or they can determine from the drafts of defendants' appeals and Judge McAfee's decision that there's no reason the hear further arguments, and the case against the defendants can commence.
McAfee's a careful judge who covered himself by issuing a certification permitting immediate review of his decisions in this case. I doubt if any serious fault could or will be found in his decision. But I wouldn't be surprised if the appellate judges similarly cover themselves and choose to set a date to hear further arguments supporting the appeal.
I expect the case will continue regardless of who acts as prosecutor; but I think the Fulton County DA's office, (i.e. Willis's office) will remain the prosecuting office in this criminal case. Respectfully, Supposn
Ok, well thanks for educating me on the certificate of immediate review. I was wondering why people were saying "the judge has allowed them to appeal," when I thought anyone could appeal anything from any judge except the ones at the USSC. So, they can appeal AND put the case on hold while they do. Yes, that will push the case back until well into next calendar year, alright.
Of course they complied. How could they not?
Fani loves this ruling, other than having to kick off Wade. Fani is already trying to figure out a way to get more money for her stud, and she may well succeed. An assertive black woman cannot be denied what she wants without a career-ending accusation of racism. Or maybe she really has broken up with him, and she'll find another other woman's husband to funel money and sex to.
I agree that the appeals will likely not get anywhere. Whether paying your married love 700K+ is inappropriate enough to be removed form a case is literally a "judgement call," and judges won't want to second guess on something like that with little precedent.
Yes, Trump will delay as long as he can. That's a very, very common defense tactic. Not to say "I told you so," but I predicted months ago that the "Get Trump" cases will not likely go to trial, and certainly not be concluded, before the election takes place. Trump's hired lawyers are way smarter than the affirmative action hire, partisan hacks that had to take a government salary.
I guess you'll have to beat him the old-fashioned way: by harvesting more ballots than the GOP. Just kidding! Hopefully, you'll try to beat him by explaining to the voters why Biden is a better leader.
Like you would say . . . what, for instance?
