The arguments were pretty arrogant slapping this Marine judge’s face, saying: “Hey you little snake judge, who do you think you are, get out of OUR business”???
She is. And she misrepresents what people say and the meaning of court orders. I'm not at all sure if it is because she doesn't understand these things herself, or because she is simply that dishonest.
And yet she’s a hero to some here.
Incorrect. It's persuasive precedent sometimes called persuasive authority by attorneys, not binding precedent. If this had been a 9th Circuit, or Supreme Court decision, then it would have been binding precedent.
Just try to tell a US District Court judge that another judge’s ruling is a precedent if that circuit court has not affirmed the same decision based on the same reasoning.
