Miller has appealed the contempt order, so anything relating to his appeal would be filed at the DC Circuit, not at the district court level.

Miller is a former Stone associate, and this comes as two other witnesses linked to Stone are slated to appear before the grand jury on Friday. Here's
@ZoeTillman's story on that:https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/zoetillman/two-people-subpoena-roger-stone-mueller-investigation …Show this thread -
It would be *very* interesting if the special counsel's office has worked out some sort of an agreement — immunity or limiting the scope of questions — that has gotten them to a point of being able to get Miller before the grand jury. (We do NOT know that's what it is, though.)

Tangentially related: Concord (the defendant in the Russian troll farm case who has appeared to fight the allegations) voluntarily dismisses its interlocutory appeal of the district court’s rejection of Concord’s attempt to challenge Mueller’s authority.https://twitter.com/mikescarcella/status/1037750734605955074?s=21 …

Update: Whatever the special counsel's office sought in its sealed motion in Andrew Miller's contempt order matter, Chief Judge Howell issued an order in response to it.pic.twitter.com/YXM0TZrTBn

UPDATE: Per an order from Judge Howell, the earlier sealed motion (Doc. No. 43) was a "Joint Motion to Unseal Contempt Order." Responses on whether to unseal the motion, order, and related items are due by 9/20.pic.twitter.com/KTlmSjuWVL

Now that we know this, I'm wondering if the request is simply an attempt to ensure that specifics of the contempt order can be more easily discussed in unsealed filings on appeal, the first of which is due 9/10. Thoughts?

Was Andrew Miller the Stone associate who went on live TV in a strange state and said all those bananas things, or am I thinking of someone else? Season 2 feels so long ago.

No. That’s Nunberg.

Of course, of course.

If the contempt order is not stayed, it can be enforced pending appeal. The motion would probably be to commit him to the custody of the US Marshal or apply coercive fines. If it is stayed, the motion might be to determine what the contempt sanction would be if the stay is lifted
-
May also be to vacate as moot if testimony no longer required.

All possible!

Can you give us a completely wild ass guess? Because I have literally no idea what it could even possibly mean.

Does Kasowitz’s law firm which has Deripaska as a client have something to do with the sudden disappearance of $200k loans Kavanaugh had?
