Courts can move fast when they want to.

1. Court

And 2 of the Judges are Biden appointees, the third one is a Bush appointee, does not look good for Don the Con.

2. I guess that the DC Circuit was NOT impressed by citing the Grinch Stole Christmas

The DC Circuit ignored TFG's brief of the Grinch stealing Christmas and set a very aggressive time table for briefing

3. Oh good grief

Every judge in every court, even those at your local county courthouse, has time set aside to handle pre-trial motions, assorted emergency filings and the like. They're always for very narrow issues--technicalities, if you will, and, compared to trials, take very little time to process. Most are resolved within half an hour. Some get slotted to when the judge has time to get to them--because more of these motions come before them than they have time to devote to ruling on them.

There isn't some grand conspiracy to deprive you of your pound of flesh via criminal prosecution at a trial. We simply have more criminal cases and technicalities to sort through with them than we have judges to deal with it all.

That's the sad reality of why the courts take so bloody long to deal with cases.

Really.
