      Thread. It's not improper for Judge Sullivan to file a response through counsel. It is, however, a sign of an extraordinary order in the 1st place when an appellate court requires a district court to respond - it's what happens when a court does something no party asked for.https://twitter.com/ProfMJCleveland/status/1264379920488312834 …

      FWIW I disagree over outrage re Judge Sullivan hiring attorney to respond to D.C. Circuit and was rather surprised that many read the order as requiring him to personally respond, but since I don't know D.C. practice figured it was merely a difference in practice. 1/

      The appellate court's order was as remarkable as Sullivan's order was in response to DOJ's somewhat unprecedented decision to DOJ drop a case in which the defendant has plead guilty twice.

      He pled guilty once. There are a lot of unusual things in the case, but as a fundamental separation of powers issue, deciding who to prosecute & when to drop a prosecution is properly an executive, not a judicial decision.

      Twice actually. Sullivan had him get up in Court under oath and admit his guilt again. But let’s pretend what Barr is doing to protect Trump’s criminal associates is normal and what Sullivan is doing to protect the Rule of Law is not.

      Two admissions, yes. One plea. The fact remains that this was a bizarre prosecution that was properly endedhttps://www.nationalreview.com/2020/05/ending-the-flynn-false-statement-case-was-the-right-judgment/ …

          Disagree. He lied and plead guilty to that crime to avoid other charges. But if only all criminal defendants could get special treatment by DOJ like Trump’s criminal friends.
