Friedland asks if they should apply Lemon or Larson (the Establishment Clause tests)
-
-
Clifton: Don't tell us you need more time, you're the one who asked for the TRO. ????!?!
-
Clifton: I don't think allegations cut it at this stage.
-
Canby: Who has the burden of showing likelihood of success? Purcell says defendants have to show, on appeal.
-
Huh, Friedland seems to just want to deal with the merits now.
-
Purcell says it would make most sense to send the case back, allow TRO to stay in place, and allow court to issue preliminary injunction
-
and then to let the case progress from there, otherwise too messy and against how 9th cir usually does things
-
Disclosure, I'm an idiot and I don't know this area of law. But that's how I'm reading it toohttps://twitter.com/steve_vladeck/status/829116425759502337 …

Purcell: Our position is that the president is acting contrary to what Congress has said. An important factor to how much deference to give
-
Clifton: Can we treat people based on the nation they come from? We do that all the time. We treat ppl from North Korea different frm France
-
Purcell is looking to wrap up, I think, meanwhile a siren is going off in the background. What up, San Francisco
-
Purcell wraps up, asks court to deny, and send back.
-
Flentje (DOJ) is back on.
-
This is his rebuttal time.
-
Friedland... really does not like Flentje.
-
Friedland: What if the order just said no Muslims, you're analogizing to cases where people were communists and agitating to overthrow govt
-
Flentje says that if the order said No Muslims, there wld be people with standing to challenge, and it would "raise First Amendment issues"
-
But won't say that it's illegal.
-
Flentje says you can't challenge based on "newspaper articles."
-
Clifton: Do you deny that these statements by then-candidate Trump were made?
-
Clifton: I understand that these statements shouldn't be given much weight, but if they were made, it is potential evidence.
-
Clifton: I just want to know what's on the table.
-
Friedland: Can you tell us anything about the type of evidence you'd present so we can decide if further proceedings are needed?
-
Flentje: Not yet, but [rolls on forward with something else entirely]
-
Clifton: Is there any legal authority as to the president or the council of the president can instruct departments on how to interpret order
-
Clifton throwing shade on how badly the EO is written and basically subtweeting Bannon
-
Sorry, I think he meant *counsel, not council
-
Flentje, "If there are no further questions, I encourage the court to stay the injunction or limit it"
-
The hearing is over. 9th Cir says they will issue a decision as soon as possible.
-
LMAO before the telephone cut off you could hear Friedland go, "Soooo"
-
Thanks everyone. If you enjoyed this and live in another jurisdiction, consider asking your circuit to follow the example of the 9th Cir
