I stated last month that this case won’t be resolved until after July 4th. Many said there was no reason to extend the trial. Reason falls by the wayside with the Deep State. My next bet is Flynn will be sentenced on the original charges.
Judge Sullivan evidently has the right to question the prosecution regarding their motion. Sullivan does not have the authority to appoint a replacement prosecutor which is what he apparently did.
I see the Appeals Court not issuing the mandate to dismiss but rather a mandate to rule without regard to the improperly sought amicus. If Sullivan drags his feet, Powell can reapply for the Writ and it will be granted without further delay.
