NEW - the GOP just will NOT give up with frivolous suits. Yet ANOTHER just filed in PA

[Roland99]

Seems eerily similar in claims to the Wayne County, MI suit (which has been noted as multiple examples of extraordinary lack of knowledge of how elections are actually performed)

Another day, another GOP lawsuit in Pennsylvania.

Note--they still haven't won a single court case.

1. Do judges not tire of this?

[Roland99]

2. I think they already have

there REALLY needs to be some sort of pre-filing review that eliminates the need for courts to hear crap like this

not sure the % but seems at least 1/3 have been dismissed almost immediately

3. They do, but the punishment is so severe that they set the bar pretty high...

7. Not just penalties of some kind? Instead of disbarment

They should be penalized for wasting the Courts time and resources.

@joeprunz
Under the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, fraud claims have special, heightened pleading requirements. Additionally, frivolous fraud claims can open you up to sanctions from the court.

So, long story short, they probably will be penalized.

8. Penalties for a few shenanigans, when you're flooding the courts it's different

Per the Wiki, "A single action, even a frivolous one, is usually not enough to raise a litigant to the level of being declared vexatious. Rather, a pattern of frivolous legal actions is typically required to rise to the level of vexatious."

I'd certainly say Mr. Trump is starting to show a pattern of frivolous legal actions; I understand right in the middle of all this would be a bad time for it but I wouldn't be shocked if he's declared Federally Vexatious after all this blows over.

4. Quit wasting everyone's time, Clownstick von Bodybags

5. How about some nice judicial sanctions against the lawyers?

6. Biden margin of victory jumps over 50,000 in Pennsylvania

Trump down to 49% of the vote, Biden at 49.74% and rising.

9. Tick tock tick tock, Jan 20 is coming closer

And your lawsuits won't change or slow that on that day you're done
