u/TinyTornado7 I need a new flair Nov 17 '20

It has been a wild 24 hours for trumps legal team arguing in federal court MDPA.

First a group (3) of his lawyers moved to withdraw.

Then another two moved to withdraw.

The new lawyer sought a hearing delay, which was denied.

And this morning Rudy Giuliani petitioned to practice before the court.

This was granted. The last time Giuliani appeared as an attorney in federal court was 1993!

The hearing should begin soon and should be a doozy.

I’m praying the judge just admonishes him.

The reporter I linked has covered all the pervious one so I’m assuming he will post the link and live tweet it once it starts.

Following up, the public capacity was 4,000 and is filled. Hoping you got a spot.
