      Here was the earlier filed notice of appeal. Miller is the Roger Stone associate who has, thus far, refused to testify before the grand jury.

      Miller is challenging Mueller's authority, specifically to subpoena him to testify and provide records. US District Judge Beryl Howell disagreed, in a 93-page decision. When he still didn't appear, he was held in contempt. He is now appealing that civil contempt finding.

      Incidentally, the appeal comes as a third judge — after two in Manafort's cases — ruled against challenges to Mueller's authority. Wednesday's ruling came in Concord's challenge in the Russian troll farm case. Here's the conclusion:pic.twitter.com/Mjq55Okl1c

          So, if 3 other judges have upheld Mueller's authority, why is this one gumming up the works?

          The ~one~ district court judge already upheld Mueller’s authority. This is an appeal.

          Precedent matters. This is a lost cause appeal.
