      Developing: Not sure what this is, because it's sealed, but it could be a big deal. This is a motion at district court, with a proposed order, filed by the special counsel's office just now in Andrew Miller's contempt case for failing to appear before the grand jury.

      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 …

      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?

          Reads like the minute order itself was intended to be sealed. Oops?

          Huh. It looks like that minute order was supposed to be sealed, but the clerk didn't check the box in ECF.

          Looks like the parties don't need to brief the issue of whether item (3) should be unsealed
