YouTube Description
as posted by the channelHarry talks with Stanton Jones, author of an amicus brief that may totally upend the dynamic of the DC circuit appeal of Judge Tanya Chutkan’s denial of Donald Trump’s immunity motion in the January 6 case. Jones’s brief relies on a 1989 unanimous Supreme Court opinion that suggest that interlocutory appeals – i.e. immediate appeals before the trial goes forward – are inappropriate unless a particular provision of the constitution or statute expressly authorizes them. Applying the test to the facts of Trump’s immunity motion results in a strong case for dismissal, which would permit pretrial litigation in the trial itself to go forward in Chutkan court and stop the delay that has been the biggest upside for Trump of the appeal.
