ACTIVITY
UpdatedThe court declined to remove Susman Godfrey from the ABA’s lawsuit.
These Lawyers sued me, beat an Order, then they come back as the Lawyers again. Conflict!
I have lawyers who are Witnesses, lawyers who are Lawyers, sometimes the same lawyers, believe me I know this Business..... nobody has had more Lawyers than I have, through no fault of my own!
Justice had not shown that the firm’s attorneys would also be necessary witnesses.
Discovery retained the White House communications request.
They want my Communications because their Conflict argument survived our Conflict argument. Very conflicted Court!
APPEAL THE LAWYERS, appeal the Order, appeal whatever they did at 7:42!
PUBLIC RECORD
U.S. District Judge Amir Ali ruled on October 16 that Susman Godfrey may continue representing the American Bar Association in its lawsuit challenging the administration’s alleged targeting of law firms. The judge said the government had not shown that the firm’s lawyers would also be necessary witnesses. Susman is separately among three firms that won orders blocking enforcement of Trump directives against them; the administration’s appeal is pending.
