I’m reading some of the briefs that have been filed with the Roberts Court re the Trump regime’s effort to get the Roberts Six to stay Judge Talwani’s preliminary injunction prohibiting Trump and USPS from taking over vote-from-home in the 2026 election.

#LegalEthics Tidbit: Is “panic” a good excuse for #AI hallucinations?
An Assistant US Attorney (AUSA) in NC “submitted a brief containing fabricated quotations and misstatements of case holdings” that were hallucinated by #AI. The AUSA initially did not admit AI use, but claimed the “error was clerical in nature and resulted from the inadvertent filing of an unfinalized draft document.” At a later show cause hearing, the AUSA stated that ...

In yet another action against the #ruleoflaw #Trump to limit sharing #classified info with #Congress after #leak on #Iran #bombing damage. Why it matters: The "Battle Damage Assessment" leak outraged Trump and top U.S. officials, who said it was incomplete and that its release was aimed at undercutting Trump's claims that Iran's nuclear sites had been #obliterated #democracy #constitution #politics #president #power #corruption #lawfedi The #leak could have come from any number of parts of govt

Alito asking why a President wouldn't self-pardon themselves again.
The Supreme Court not addressing an issue doesn't mean it's up for debate, it means the issue might have not come up because its fucking ridiculous and no one would ever think to make the argument.
As my step-mom is oft to say: Get the gun and shoot me.

Now a justice asking about whether interning Japanese-Americans during WWII would be criminally prosecutable.
Uh, I have Zero problem with that, actually. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I know they think that is problematic, but I think that is a good example of something horrific we could have avoided by imposing criminal liability.

I think it is #ALITO (I think now that voice I hear is Alito, which makes sense with how insane it all is) now that is essentially saying we cannot trust grand juries to do their job correctly.
IF THAT IS THE CASE: WHAT ABOUT NORMAL PEOPLE SUBJECT TO THEM?
There is justice for the wealthy and powerful and fuck-all for everyone else.

On a tangential note, I don't care how much an attorney believes in zealous advocacy for their defendants, any attorney that stands before the United States Supreme Court and argues in defense of tyranny by unelected ruler should be ostracized from the legal community and society in general.
The legal community needs to do more norm enforcement.

Parsing voices: Alito (maybe it was Gorsuch) and Kavanaugh were definitely interested in the "clear statement rule" which would pretty much provide blanket immunity to all criminal laws except 1-3 laws.
Barrett seemed skeptical of the immunity claims.
Jackson just is constantly on a roll so that goes without saying.

I think #Alito (I think it's Alito actually, I always confuse the two) is floating that Presidents should just pardon themselves because that has never been decided by the Supreme Court.
**BECAUSE SELF PARDONS ARE LEGAL FUCKING NONSENSE**
I won't be posting live updates, but I am listening with rage.

#LegalEthics Tidbit: Fraudulent Billing is Not a “Professional Service”
A FL law firm was sued for allegedly billing time not worked. Its insurer denied any duty to defend because false billing is not “performing or failing to perform” a “professional service”. The Court agreed.

The Ohio state Supreme Court has left standing a $32 million verdict against Dentons for legal malpractice arising from a conflict of interest. Dentons tried to argue that its verein ownership structure meant there was no conflict. Given the facts of the case, I agree with the ruling of the court below, which is the one the Ohio high court has left in place. Here's the lower court decision. https://www.supremecourt.ohio.gov/rod/docs/pdf/8/2022/2022-Ohio-1392.pdf
