No: Andrew has a BA from Duke.

The setup:

Gallups wrote:[Lin Wood's] "It's Happening! Just give us a couple of weeks more!" announcements have been running since January 2021. Just saying.

I sense another block from Snowflake Gallups.

Defendants' references to Plaintiff as "Batshit", a "grifter" and a "bigot", are the types of "vigorous epithets" the Supreme Court characterizes as rhetorical hyperbole. ALLEGEDLY. [/b] Full Wonkette: Court-Ordered, Judge-Approved Things Wonkette Can Say Abo...

I think this is a very interesting question, and I'd like to take a crack at it when I have more time. But (assuming the juror was, in fact, biased), I think it's going to come down to (1) whether the appellate court finds that having a biased juror on the court is a "structural error" af...

Gallups and PPS both requested to follow my lurker account (which is protected). The only way he'd know to do that is to follow back everyone who follows his accounts.

So, clearly, Gallups snoops.

(And the "NN" in "PNN" stands for "news network." )

And this is where a judge's findings are critical: The judge, following a hearing, may rely on innumerable intangibles when concluding the juror is or isn't credible (assuming the juror testifies at a hearing to that effect).

Too also: Larry Flynt never said (especially after being sued!), "I firmly believe everything I said was true."

One disagrees with bob at his or her peril. That Guy knows nothing. My guess is there will be a hearing about whether the juror lied concealed was omissive committed misconduct when answering the juror questionnaire. And the new-trial motion will rise or fall on the judge's credibility findings abo...

[A] defense lawyer said that the Daunte Wright killing could be a reason for a new trial (if combined with other factors). Why would that be? The short answer is: it wouldn't. It would require a chain of events to be true. And the defense would need to provide (1) evidence that is (2) admissible ab...

The motion itself is short; it references the applicable facts and laws, but doesn't discuss them. The juror allegations are in there, near the end.

So: In Racist Cops v. Philadelphia , the court previously granted the defendant's unopposed motion to dismiss. But vacated that order once Klayman got serious about this case. The judge then granted the renewed motion to dismiss, with leave to amend -- and this "curious" caveat: Plaintiffs...

The ruling by Klayman's "favorite" judge, Amy Berman Jackson. (CREW filed the FOIA suit.)

The judge decided it was not and has kicked the case back to for random assignment (it was originally assigned to him as related). Ugh: The cases focus on different events, involve different time periods, and turn on distinct legal theories. "Please throw more shotgun pleadings at the wall lik...

If this juror was wearing a "get your knee off our necks" T-shirt during the summer protests in Washington, D.C., I would be amazed if the jury verdict were not reversed. N.b.: A photo, posted on social media, shows Brandon Mitchell, who is Black, attending the Aug. 28 event to commemorat...
