Judge warns of possible 'consequences' after DOJ push back on questions about deportation flights

4. I know but it is a steady stream of delay tactics and non-compliance on

absolutely everything. The pattern really doesn't need to be proven or tolerated. If they tried to appeal on the basis of not being "warned" etc. the other side can simply lay out the known thousands of examples of not complying even after being "warned" or given extensions of deadlines. The appellate court would be ruling on the argument of whether the lower court judge acted "fairly". Given that extensions of deadlines, warnings from the bench etc. are discretionary and are not written into local rules etc. the appellate court would have a hard time justifying overturning an imposition of penalty given that the government could show nothing in return to the claims of pattern and practice.

That is all normal if we were in rational times but now anything goes and the delays in the New York cases prove that to a certainty. People keep wondering about the big judgements against Crumb the 1st and how all of that is going. With absolute certainty I can say that just like major corporations that stall off for years and years their having to pay on large judgements it will be done here also. The endless appeals and then delays, request for time, non-compliance, appeals over the non-compliance, failure to proceed as adjudged or agreed and then appeals over that and on and on. He is an old man who will likely be able to run out the clock while he is alive.
