Is it done?

By Patrick Van Roy On June 24th, 2020

The Appeals court has rendered it’s Verdict.

Appeals court orders judge to dismiss criminal case against Michael Flynn

U.S. District Judge Emmet G. Sullivan cannot scrutinize the Justice Department’s decision to drop its long-running prosecution of President Trump’s former national security adviser Michael Flynn and must dismiss the case, a federal appeals court ruled Wednesday.

In a 2-1 decision, the court said it is not within the judge’s power to prolong the prosecution or examine the government’s motives for its reversal in the politically charged case. Flynn twice pleaded guilty to lying to federal agents about his pre-inauguration contacts with Russia’s ambassador before the Justice Department moved in May to dismiss the charges.

“This is not the unusual case where a more searching inquiry is justified,” wrote Judge Neomi Rao, a recent nominee of the president, who was joined by Judge Karen LeCraft Henderson.  The ruling from the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit means Sullivan cannot hold a hearing set for July 16 to formally hear the government’s request to dismiss Flynn’s case.

Flynn was the highest-ranking Trump adviser charged in special counsel Robert S. Mueller III’s investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election. Before its reversal in May, the government had recommended a prison term of up to six months for Flynn.

Instead of moving to sentencing, Attorney General William P. Barr ordered a review of Flynn’s case, which found the FBI had no valid basis to question Flynn, so any lies he told were irrelevant to any crime.

In reviewing the government’s actions, Sullivan also asked Gleeson to consider whether Flynn may have committed perjury while pleading guilty to a crime that he and the Justice Department now say is no longer a crime. Gleeson advised Sullivan in his initial report not to impose contempt of court penalties on Flynn but to continue to the sentencing phase of the case.

So not only did the Judge want to drop the case, he instructed his handpicked hack to see since Flynn was BLACKMAILED into Pleading Guilty if by doing so he could be charged with PERJURY for giving in to the BLACKMAIL.

    Oh dear (no pun intended) Lord..

    The name Flynn has been mentioned.

    a) Brighton & Hove is doomed, b) expect purple veined liberal gammons to burst a blood vessel.

    Industrial quantities of popcorn required.

    Damn, I know I shouldn’t have started the first comment on this post. I was hoping it would be quietly ignored by everyone 🙂

    “Is it done?”

    Possibly, but there are plenty of other legal moves available. Judge Sullivan could ask the full bench of the Court to review the decision en banc. In fact any judge on the Court could ask for a review sua sponte.

    Of the three judges who heard the case two were appointed by Republicans, and one was appointed by a Democrat. It was a 2-1 decision, with the Republican appointees ruling for Flynn, and the Democrat dissenting.

    Of the 12 circuit judges 7 were appointed by Democratic Presidents. So if it splits Democratic-Republican then an en banc hearing would be heard.

    Flynn is a traitor who pled guilty. This should go to the full appeals court and the supreme court if necessary.

    AG Barr should be impeached for doing a personal favor for his boss.

    After a couple of weeks without more boring trivia about this case, I thought it had died, but no, it seems like Flynn is the new ‘Jesus on the cross’ – destined to never die 🙂
