A state appeals court on Wednesday quietly denied a request by Donald Trump’s lead attorney to push back some key proceedings in the case aimed at dismissing the former president’s racketeering (RICO) and election subversion charges in Georgia.
In a terse, one-sentence-long order, the Georgia Court of Appeals declined to reschedule oral arguments — ruling against a request by Trump’s attorney, Steve Sadow, to grant a continuance for him to accommodate long-ago scheduled international travel plans.
Just remember, Steve, when you’re stuck in a courtroom in Georgia instead of celebrating your birthday and anniversary abroad, that you chose to represent Donald Trump. And all those motions you filed to delay the case, well… guess you shouldn’t have done that.
“But Your Honor, I never believed those delaying tactics would work so well! Who could have guessed we’d still be doing this?!”
shouldn’t even have his passport anyway.
This is about Trumps lawyer, I don’t think he’s been charged with any crimes yet.
Definitely right in denying it though.
Always have to specify “yet” for a Trumpanzee attorney.
The lawyer wants to travel in this case, not Trump himself.
The lawyer shouldn’t have a passport due to association with Trump suggesting they are complicit in the traitorous schemes.
I’m sure your client pays you enough to reschedule your travel plans. Right?😂

You mean they didn’t shout or hold a press conference painting a target on their back to refuse a blatant stalling tactic? Weird!

Could have been a one-word order tbh. It’s not like the request had any merit 🤷
That’s the word I had in mind, yeah 😁
I would also have accepted “seriously?”, or “idiot”
Maybe ask to reschedule for September.
Fuck him. God damn flight risk.
Lol at the idea of Trump’s lawyers fleeing the country. Considering that MAGA stands for Make Attorneys Get Attorneys I suppose that makes sense.
Fucking rare courtroom W to schedule this wealthy insurrectionist with the same strictness as a regular defendant. “Oh we actually have a little vacation planned that day,” fuck off. Court is in session.
Wait, it’s the lawyer’s travel plans? That’s egregious even for Donald’s team.
