I haven't read the opinion but it's not a shock. You knew the way the hearing was held that this judge was pissed off.

Federal courts do not mess around. I have a case that got removed to one now and I hate it.

Federal courts tend to be better than state courts if you play defense. Significantly easier to get a MTD or MSJ granted. Elected judges are more nervous about pissing off the lawyers.

I had a case against a large corporation in federal court. They offered my clients six figures and the dumbasses wouldn't take it, against my advice. Of course the judge later granted SJ and I had to go to the 11th circuit court of appeals. The mediator at the 11th circuit told us "we have a reputation of shooting the wounded." It settled for $30k. I'm still pissed at that client.

A federal judge is one of the most powerful persons on the planet. Appointed for life and almost impossible to get removed. If you think they did something wrong, your only recourse is getting a circuit court of appeals to reverse them or get the case to the US Sct? Good luck with that.

"Second, Wood is not credible," is judgespeak for "Lin, you lied your ass off to this court."
This judge is royally pissed, and that's going to be reflected in any documents sent to the respective state bars for disciplinary action.
I know you hate the actual law. I went to law school with a lot of your type. The ones who never understood it and thought the Constitution was just a suggestion.

You are a liberal.

Sadly. you win.

Constitution is gone.

Congrats on that.
Why in the last few years have you become reflexively defensive and default to ad hominin every time someone posts something you even slightly disagree with? You used to be able to have at least a little nuance in your discussion, particularly involving legal points. Now, even when someone posts something with which you purportedly align (ex., you say you disavowed this Kraken nonsense), you can't help but ignore the substance and default attack the messenger. I just don't get it.

ETA: was going to delete given my subsequent post. But leaving up so it doesn't look like I did a drive by

yes, really. you disavow Sidney, yet you attack anyone that shows what a fraud she is. Why?

Don't know Gipper, but saying HTownAg98 "hates the law" is just silly.
Ah, somehow scrolled past this post before making my own. Apologies, didn't mean to pile on when BMX already made the similar point.

A couple more things I noticed in the order:
1. Emily Newman got hosed in this. She only spent about five hours on this case, and had little involvement, and she gets to share equally in all the sanctions when it's readily apparent that Powell, Wood, and Kleinhendler were the ones driving the bus. I understand the concept of "you signed it, you own it," but it seems a bit unfair to her. She's going to spend more time taking CLE at her own expense than she spent on the case. Big ooof.
2. Greg Rohl, what are you doing? You told the court you reviewed an 830 page motion in "well over an hour," and filed it. He must be the best speed reader on the planet. I'm not saying he lied to the court, but claiming he reviewed this adequately before filing it seems spurious.
3. Lin Wood is up to his neck in it. He lied to the judge's face about his involvement in the case. If he really wasn't involved at all, he should have told the court his name was erroneously added to the case as soon as he knew about it, not six months later when he's being hit with a sanctions motion.
4. I'm not sure anyone will be disbarred over this, but Powell is likely the leader for anything happening to someone. The fact that she was fundraising to bankroll this nonsense, she'll likely be paying sanctions out of the funds she grifted from people, and she said under oath that she'd file this trashfiling again isn't going to sit well with a disciplinary committee. This whole lawsuit was a con, plain and simple. Wood is probably next in line for lying to the court. Again, I don't think disbarrments are coming, but suspensions could be in order.

Afghanistan is a complete ****show, people should be fired, and Biden should be impeached for handling it. Do you feel better now?

WTF staff???
I"m a big boy. I know y'all think I'm wrong. I think you are wrong about Trump. I think he's a dangerous wanna-be Putin style autocrat. I'm here to discuss.

Staff warned other posters before about "you voted for this" getting old - I didn't object then either. I think it's kind of funny.

Excellent find, GeorgiAg you said above your here to discuss, so please enlighten us if Trump is still the "dangerous wanna-be Putin style autocrat" or if maybe you voted for one.

(CNN)A group of lawyers aligned with former President Donald Trump -- including Sidney Powell and Lin Wood -- were ordered Thursday by a federal judge to collectively pay more than $175,000 in sanctions-related fees stemming from a bogus election fraud lawsuit they filed last year.

US District Judge Linda Parker ordered that the lawyers pay the $21,964.75 in attorneys' fees for the Michigan state officials they sued in the lawsuit. She also ordered that the lawyers pay $153,285.62 in attorneys' fees for the city of Detroit, which was also a defendant in the election reversal lawsuit filed last year.

Quote:

The Court found sanctions necessary to deter such dangerous behavior in the future. For these reasons, it was perhaps as important for the City's counsel to prepare and present their arguments for sanctions in response to such conduct as it was to present the City's defenses to Plaintiffs' claims.

In other proceedings, she had previously been referred to her home bar for disbarment proceedings.

In related news, Powell is under federal criminal investigation for fraud. Her 501(c) "dEfeNDinG thE rePubLIc" foundation raised $15 million to "stop the steal". But spent little money on legal fees or investigations. (also known as scamming)

15 million is a nice haul.

This Maplethorpe sock trying to resurrect this nonsense, shocker, the same AUSA Molly Gaston who has 400 people locked up without bail for 11 months for trespassing, claiming it's an insurrection investigation in which not ONE person is charged with insurrection or sedition, only trespassing. the same AUSA that's going after Bannon for tell the BS Jan 6 committee to blow him. The Same AUSA that's going after Roger Stone again. Now is subpoenaing Sidney Powell looking into fundraising of a 501(c) 4 and possible violations of a nonprofit. Oh my the boogie man

Maplethorpe never talk about the Clinton Foundation 501(c) 4 that is actually in court fighting an audit suit that's revealed they own hundreds of millions of dollars in back taxes. Garland can't shut it down because it doesn't fall under his purview and authority. WHen is AUSA Molly Gaston going after Hunter Biden and all those fake S Corps they wash the money through in Delaware?

Subpoenaing records is nonsense, come back when you have an indictment or something solid. This really isn't about a 501(c) 4 violation it's about going after all things Trump related, because they know he's coming in 2024 and is going to steam roll Biden if Biden lives that long. All the evidence is coming out finally of all the fraud and funny business that went n in 2020.

Idiot Obama judge sanctioned Sidney Powell claiming the voter fraud lawsuits were frivolous and they had procedural violations, and possible false documents that are now looking not so false. Sure Dominion Voting Systems filed defamation lawsuits, but where have they gone? Anyone can file a lawsuit, now proving it is something else. Dominion is just trying to save face in the press by pushing back with actual frivolous lawsuits.

Dominion has survived a motion to dismiss from Powell and Giuliani, so that case is moving on to discovery.

That double edged sword may prove to be a problem for Dominion when Russell Ramsland and his forensic investigators get after them.

Dominion is basing a lot of their defamation complaint on the fact that so many cases were dismissed up in Michigan and PA. Problem is those cases weren't ever heard and were thrown out on BS tieline issues. The court refused to take up cases prior to Nov 3rd claiming they were jumping the gun and then rejected them afterwards claiming they were too late. No cases were heard on the merritts of the cases just dismissed on procedural garbage and that ever moving timeline.

I'm guessing once discovery gets into digger deeper, Dominion will bow out dropping their defamation claims.

We'll see

If Dominion was so worried about discovery, they wouldn't have filed these defamation suits to start with. Ramsland is a clown who can't keep his states straight to begin with; they aren't worried about him.
