Judge again refuses to let nationally known lawyer defend Cliven Bundy ( Larry Klayman )
LAS VEGAS REVIEW-JOURNAL ^ | April 19, 2016 | JEFF GERMAN

Posted on 04/20/2016 7:27:13 AM PDT by george76

Nevada’s chief federal judge Tuesday for the second time refused to let nationally known conservative lawyer Larry Klayman join Cliven Bundy’s defense team.

...

The judge’s ruling will be legally challenged on an expedited basis,” he said. “It violates Cliven Bundy’s Sixth Amendment constitutional right to counsel and forces Cliven to forfeit his right to a speedy trial.

“The ruling demonstrates that the judge has an extra-judicial bias and prejudice against Cliven Bundy and his counsel, for which disqualification is required. The judge was recommended by (U.S. Sen.) Harry Reid and appointed by President Barack Obama, and the order wears her political allegiance on her sleeve.”

...

In another development Tuesday, U.S. Magistrate Judge Peggy Leen allowed one of Bundy’s sons, Ryan Bundy, to represent himself in the case with a standby attorney.

Klayman should simply hire on as spokesperson for the team. And do as many interviews as possible.

When the gag order comes....do interviews about the gag order.

Turn this thing into a media circus.

Yes if there ever was a need for a media circus its this attempt to railroad about 100 people into prison.

Under what law is a judge allowed to deny a defendant his choice of counsel providing that the counsel is legally entitled to practice law in said jurisdiction?

Sounds like the Judge should be tried and put away. Maybe he or she will be within a year.

Cliven Bundy vs the FEDERAL GOVERNMENT

Sounds fair.

Because Klayman isn’t admitted in NV? Odd to not do an accommodation in a criminal matter.

Whoa! Every time I think the Judiciary can’t get any worse, things like this pop up.

What do you call a lawyer with an IQ of 50?

Answer: Your Honor.

Honest news organization should be all over this, but...

Control = Bondage, we’ve been there for decades but this is now in our face bondage by the federal government and its crooked minion gestapo. And all those anti firearms politicians across this country want to disarm the citizen for safety reasons?

In a two-page order, Gloria Navarro said she will not allow Klayman into the high-profile
criminal case until he can give her proof that “ethical disciplinary proceedings” against
him in Washington, D.C., have been resolved in his favor.

Like Obama, this Judge doesn’t follow the Constitution. Courts routinely allow defendants to even change attorneys at least once.

This country is disintegrating. Hate to be so cynical, but the evidence is right in front of us.

Klayman is a litigator and not a criminal defense attorney. Bundy would be better served by someone who knows his way around a criminal trial. Otherwise at the end of the day Klayman would have his headlines and Bundy would still be going to jail.
