There He Goes Again: Judge Emmett Sullivan Threatens New Group Of DOJ Lawyers With Contempt

BLT reports here that Judge Emmett Sullivan is threatening to hold DOJ lawyers in contempt for failing to produce exculpatory information on Guantanamo detaineeĀ Saeed Abdullah Batarfi. Judge Sullivan first ordered the documents produced on January 16. His written order questions whether the DOJ lawyers examining the documents possess the requisite knowledge to make Brady determinations. I don’t have the written order yet because DC Pacer appears to be down.
