Thanks for the good read. Couple questions. Does that court have the capacity to try hundreds, if not thousands of unlawful combatants? And is the same herky-jerky appeals process there that allows trials to drag on for 10+ years?

Since it is a secret court I can not answer those questions. Here is a link to Sec. 1803. Designation of judges
HERE

and Here is a link to TITLE 50 - WAR AND NATIONAL DEFENSE
HERE

These are not updated links with the new stuff from the Patriot act. I am still sorting that out that hard way :-).

I do know the the Patriot Act added 3 more Judges to total 9 and expaned the power of the FISC.
