Yeah it's a Biden judge so I wouldn't expect a good opinion in the case.

OTOH isn't this for final judgement on the merits? Knowing that a crummy opinion is headed for SCOTUS.

Wow that was a quick read. Unbelievable how arrogantly that was written.

"This paragraph consists of allegations that contain argument, requiring no response by Defendant. To the extent that a response is required, Defendant denies each and every allegation." This or something similar to almost every point made by plaintiff.

Never read such a weird response to a complaint.

I was thinking the same thing.

one can assume they believe the judge will MOSTLY side with the state already, so no need to handicap her in anyway. Plus, they are arrogant in nature, "we are in charge, how dare you challenge us" mentality.
