Judge Slams Justice Department For “Misconduct†In Immigration Case
The federal district court judge who ruled against President Obama’s expanded immigration executive action earlier this year slammed Justice Department lawyers on Tuesday night for what he called “misconduct†in the case.
U.S. District Court Judge Andrew Hanen formally denied the government’s request that he put his ruling in the case on hold while the government appeals his decision in favor of Texas and several other states that have challenged the actions. The Justice Department, expecting that Hanen either would deny their request or not rule at all, already has asked the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals to issue a stay of Hanen’s ruling during their appeal of it.
In addition to that, though, Hanen issued a second ruling, ordering the government to provide drafts and other information about a March 3, 2015 Advisory that the government had filed in the case.
Later, he noted, “Fabrications, misstatements, half-truths, artful omissions, and the failure to correct misstatements may be acceptable, albeit lamentable, in other aspects of life; but in the courtroom, when an attorney knows that both the Court and the other side are relying on complete frankness, such conduct is unacceptable.â€

I hope Hanen's life insurance is paid up. You never know what will happen with this Administration.

In the meantime, Obama continues to keep the floodgates open and ignores the courts like he has always done.

That pen and phone are working overtime.

Just a teahadist racist judge.
