Judge Says to Justice Dept.(Bart),I was Ready to Sentence Flynn Before and Im Still Ready


Judge said to AG Bart and Trump indirectly.....Not so fast, I know what is going on, you will have to be in Mars not to know. I will try to follow the law..you know the law you guys don't follow.



The presiding judge in Michael Flynn's criminal case has appointed a retired judge to present arguments in opposition to the Justice Department's move to dismiss its prosecution of the former national security adviser.
Judge Emmet Sullivan has asked John Gleeson, a retired judge in the Eastern District of New York, to act as a friend of the court and look into whether Flynn should face a contempt hearing for perjury. 
The order does not address the government's attempt to drop the case or suggest when the judge might make that decision. It comes a day after Sullivan issued an ordersoliciting "friend of the court" briefs and said he would provide a schedule at a later time. 
The move signals the judge could have some reservations about the DOJ's effort to dismiss the case. 
The Justice Department announced last week that it would move to drop the case against Flynn. Attorney General William Barr has drawn criticism for intervening in cases involving friends of President Trump. 
Flynn pleaded guilty to lying to the FBI about his contacts with the Russians, but now says that he's innocent and was entrapped by the government. 
The Justice Department declined to comment
