The very fact that this legal circus was allowed to continue unchallenged and unchecked speaks volumes about the state of the “legal” system in this country.

Even the Robert’s Court punted because of a lack of fortitude and a fear of appearing “political”. I’d like to remind the Justices that when good men do nothing evil will surely triumph! From a citizens perspective, I have to say that a display of courage, and damn the fallout, would be a welcome and refreshing change from the moral posturing that currently passes for legal and political valor leaves me with nothing but contempt for the High Court.

I’m fully convinced that the Robert’s court rendering of Patrick Henry’s “give me liberty or give me death” declaration would have been more along the lines of

“give me liberty, or, hey maybe we can work something out”. I mean after all, that death part seems awfully political and divisive.

'Twas a time when New York was the Leading Court of Precedent

Not Just Nationwide but Worldwide Considered the Top Jurists

Valued Rulings

1st go to for Legal Research - What did NY Court of Appeals have to say ?

While They still maintain their world wide ranking and While I am not sure if Hochul or Schumer realizes it

I am pretty sure the Justices do

It's a shameful humiliation and perhaps a large step down that slippery slope of lost esteem

Political Ambition meant Millions of dollars and resources and time wasted when civil and criminal victims suffered and could not be heard or have to wait years to be heard due to an overwhelmed and underfunded docket among other reasons.

There is an embarrasing appearance that Everyone involved wanted to be a hero prosecuting Trump so if Biden won re election they could cash in their chips.
